  Everything Is Forever is the new documentary by director Vic Zimet and co-producer Stephanie Silber. The film is an inspiring profile of musician Nenad Bach, who left his thriving musical career in Croatia to become a worldwide ambassador of peace. He has brought his message of goodwill by meeting and performing for heads of state and appearing with fellow musicians such as Bono, Pavarotti, and Garth Hudson of The Band.
  
  Currently the film is raising funds through an innovative new crowdfunding program called Fundrazr in which donors are rewarded with gift cards for popular businesses like Starbucks, Subway, Best Buy, Home Depot and others in amounts equal to the donation. So, it’s just like buying a gift card and having your money go straight to the filmmakers. And that money, in this case, will go towards finishing funds and a proposed film tour accompanied by appearances with Nenad and his band.
  
  So, go get rewarded with a gift card (or several) and help a great filmmaker out.
  
  
  
  

  HERE'S WISHING YOU ALL A FANTASTIC 2014!!

We look towards 2014 with great excitement over a number of projects - one of these is the finishing of 'Everything is Forever' and sharing it with as many possible.  More details to be shared, as they are worked on by our great friend Vic Zimmet who has been doing the project in the last fifteen years.

Here's the link to the trailer of the movie:     http://vimeo.com/77522836


Peace and Love to all.

FINALLY EVERYTHING IS FOREVER

We are taking the liberty of sharing here Stephanie Silber's update on the 'Everything is Forever' film project.

 Posted on December 16, 2013 by Stephanie Silber

EVERYTHING IS FOREVER is complete.  It took us fifteen years.  Giving up was not an option.  It’s never been for us.  The other day Vic and I were talking about the notion of giving up on your dreams.  Who goes the distance and who cannot, or will not?  We’ve been around long enough to see many back away, ambition fizzled and gone out.  We’ve both often examined the idea of quitting, putting the endless struggles and sacrifices and going broke finally behind us.  Now I think we both accept that we’ll never stop trying to create, to bring art into the world no matter the emotional and financial costs.

EVERYTHING IS FOREVER is the story of the musician Nenad Bach, who has followed his rock dreams out of his native Croatia to America.  His is the ultimate example of what it means to never stop striving.

We finished the film over the weekend, and Vic and I sat together on a frozen Sunday to watch it together.  Often, when a film is a work-in-progress, you don’t have an opportunity to see it all of a piece.  So as I watched, it was as though for the first time.  It stunned me.  I believe it is Vic’s best work — this is “A Victor Zimet Film” and it shows in every frame, every beat, every nuance.

It plays like a perfect novel, these true adventures of an artist who simply refuses to give up.  Tears, laughter, you-can’t-make-this-stuff-up surprises, war, peace, and the human experience — it’s all here.  We were both weeping at the end, catharsis achieved.  And meaning-making.

Of course, there is lots of work ahead of us.  Now we will begin the arduous process of bringing the film to an audience; art is interactive.  It needs to be seen or heard to have a life.  We’ll submit to festivals, arrange screenings as well as live performances from Nenad and his eponymous band.  We’ll promote with the same determination we brought to the making of the film.  We will get tired.  We will endure disappointments aplenty.  We will sometimes feel like giving up.

But we know what will sustain us.  The feeling of sitting in a dark theater, surrounded by an audience, with a big screen playing EVERYTHING IS FOREVER.  Pure joy.  We’re really looking forward to it.

He has never given up. Now, he is composing scores for independent films as he continues to perform and write his own music. Perhaps most importantly, he remains committed to his work as a “citizen of the world,” a tireless antiwar activist, the driving passion which infuses his life and the music he creates." We're planning to launch a fund raising campaign to help with the production costs of the documentary. Details to follow.

Nenad Bach in Zagreb Last November, in Lisinski Hall, Nenad Bach held a concert to remember our respected musician and promoter of Croatia in the world, says he is an artist with Croatian soul and an American passort. "For me this concert in Lisinski was a special experience. My American Boys are delighted with Croatia, its people, culture and they will long talk about these three days in Zagreb. I am continuing my mission of "Rock with soul" in these concerts and with the promotion of the album "Everything is Forever". We thank the Croatian public on such an emotional reception and hope to come again. The band wants to perform the song "Vukovar" in Vukovar" said Nenad Bach after the concert with which we remind you with its rebroadcast on HRT 2 on March 20th at 17:20 Croatian time. Editor: Lejdi Oreb Director: Tvrtko Grgić

NENAD BACH u ZAGREBU U studenom prošle godine u Lisinskom je održan koncert za pamćenje. Za NENADA BACH, našeg cijenjenog glazbenika i promotora Hrvatske u svijetu, kažu kako je umjetnik s hrvatskom dušom i američkom putovnicom.. "Za mene je ovaj koncert u Lisinskom bio posebni doživljaj. Moji American Boys su oduševljeni Hrvatskom, ljudima, kulturi i sigurno će prepričavati još dugo ova tri dana u Zagrebu. Nastavljam svoju ”Rock with soul” misiju kako ovim koncertom tako i promocijom albuma Everything is Forever. Zahvalni smo Hrvatskoj publici na tako emotivnom prijemu i nadamo se doći ponovno. Želja svih u bandu je izvesti skladbu Vukovar u Vukovaru." rekao je Nenad Bach nakon koncerta na kojeg vas podsjećamo reprizom na HTV2, 20. ožujka od 17.20.
