Reading Time: < 1 minute

Published: April 4, 2002

The National Film Board has issued a casting call for prairie

travellers for an upcoming documentary called The Longest Road.

Documentary film makers Kevin Alexander and David Schultz are producing

a film about the Trans-Canada Highway and those who travel it.

For the prairie portion, the film makers are looking for agricultural

sales representatives who travel the highway and deal directly with

farmers and farm suppliers. They are looking for personal memories,

anecdotes and present day travel experiences.

To get in touch with the filmmakers, phone toll free 866-687-7623, fax

403-245-6411 or e-mail interstate80@shaw.ca.
