China International Travel CA recently learned of an interesting and important project that we have chosen to support, and we hope you will too. These kinds of cultural exchanges are a critical part of the international effort to fight climate change and create sustainable modern societies. In this area as in many others, the United States and China have a lot to learn from each other.
MIND THE GAP: A documentary project about sustainable urban transportation
MIND THE GAP events focus on Citizen Participation – sharing ideas of what you can do to improve your transit carbon footprint. We bring together local speakers and artists who share ideas about walking, biking, public transit, and new forms of car sharing. We also provide information on ways to get involved with the legislative process affecting urban transportation.

KICKSTARTER DETAILS:
Kickstarter is a platform that allows independent artists to raise funds needed for their projects. With film grants shrinking and many grants unavailable to filmmakers until their filming is complete, this is a great way for the community to get involved and help make the film they want to see.
A message from the director, Laura J. Lukitsch: I have been working on pre-production for MIND THE GAP for over a year now and am at the stage where I am ready to film. I've been doing research and filming in California, but it is time to see and film what is happening in other countries.
At the end of June I leave for Beijing. I need funds to be able to travel, for equipment rental, crew, and a translator.
If you can, please give Laura a hand!
