THIS IS A LETTER FROM ED LOCHMAN, WHOM SERGEI SELYANOV DIDN'T LET SHOOT MY FILM in 2004. 

hi,in Rio til 7th of feb then Paris til 12th then LA til 15th,i,m very interested in your film because you know the world so intimately and it.s a compelling story with many visual possiblites ,i,ve have a feeling for Japanese culture studing Japanese films for years and shooting Toyko Ga for Wim Wenders/anyway comfort for housing just so it.s clean/safe ,have all the camera equipment we would need but have to work out my financial arrangement; I´would be fair but it´s a longer discussion because of my own expenses while i would be away for the amount of time and what i would bring to the project/shooting next few days where do i find you to speak with you directly ~ tavarish- ed
