Schapelle Corby Visits the United States!

The documentary on Schapelle's case, called 'Ganja Queen', will air on HBO JUNE 30 as part of a series entitled HBO Documentary Films Series. I had previously posted that 'Ganja Queen' would air August 30, so I am grateful that information on the website was posted on the FreeSchapelle forum.

Below is a site listing the documentaries HBO will air in this special series:

This is a site that explains Janine Hoskings' film in (slightly) more detail:

Next, and last, a review from Variety.com on 'Ganja Queen'. I landed on this site from an IMDb link on 'Ganja Queen':

http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117932495.html?categoryid=31&cs=1&p=0 - it is interesting that at the end of the article, the reviewer notes, "one never really sees where the Corby story is going or where it will end up." Well, we are all in the middle of this. Though the comment is a critique of the film, the comment gets it right in this: Schapelle Corby's case is ongoing, and the fight is far from over. Again, we're all in the middle of this.
