A Cinelan Film: cinelan.com/
From Ross Kauffman—the Academy Award winning Director of "Born Into Brothels."
In 1985, a young man from a well-to-do family took a bicycle trip across southern Europe, wandered into Bangladesh, traveled through India, and vanished while hiking in the rugged foothills of the Himalayas. He was never seen or heard from again.
"Wait For Me" is the story of a mother’s spiritual and emotional search for her son—a ceaseless emotional trek, propelled by an unconditional love and an unwavering belief that he may still be alive.
This is a three minute piece but a much longer version is in production. More info @:

very nice work,.
Wait for me, and I'll come back!
Wait with all you've got!
Wait, when dreary yellow rains
Tell you, you should not.
Wait when snow is falling fast,
Wait when summer's hot,
Wait when yesterdays are past,
Others are forgot.
Wait, when from that far-off place,
Letters don't arrive.
Wait, when those with whom you wait
Doubt if I'm alive.
Wait for me, and I'll come back!
Wait in patience yet
When they tell you off by heart
That you should forget.
Even when my dearest ones
Say that I am lost,
Even when my friends give up,
Sit and count the cost,
Drink a glass of bitter wine
To the fallen friend -
Wait! And do not drink with them!
Wait until the end!
Wait for me and I'll come back,
Dodging every fate!
"What a bit of luck!" they'll say,
Those that would not wait.
They will never understand
How amidst the strife,
By your waiting for me, dear,
You had saved my life.
Only you and I will know
How you got me through.
Simply - you knew how to wait -
No one else but you.

"In the February 1942.. "Pravda" (popular newspaper in USSR) published a lyric which immediately won the heart of our troops. It was "Wait for me". Soldiers cut it out of the paper, copied it out as they sat in the trenches, learned it by heart and sent it back in letters to wives and girlfriends; it was found in the breast pockets of the killed and wounded. In the history of Russia poetry if would be hard to find a poem which had such an impact on the people as "Wait for me". It made the soviet officer and Russian poet Konstantin Simonov, who wrote this poem to to Valentina Serova, - famous throughout the world."
Heartbreaking but amazing clip, thank you.
As I watching it, I had the same feeling as I had watching "Into the wild"
I understood. I understood completely.
this is amazing.
So moving.
Gripping work.
really i loved it
Really great job.
That's what I've been waiting for. A documentary to fit the internet medium. What you have made should be the template for Micromenteries on the internet. Beautifully lit, told, edited, music, everything. Well done.
P.S. Might want to watch the current FilmFellas, we talk about projects like yours a lot: zacuto.com/filmfellas-cast-7

I understand him, what he was trying to do .
Only tears.
THIS is more than a documentary.
Thanks.
