| Disney Plans Earth Day IMAX Release Of 'Sacred Planet'
Jon Long's goal is to show people parts of the world that may be gone soon. A snowboarder, mountain biker and windsurfer, he has found that his sports skills helped him as he trekked to remote parts of Thailand, Borneo, New Zealand, Africa and more for his Disney-produced movie "Sacred Planet." Disney is releasing the 45-minute film to IMAX theaters across the country in commemoration of Earth Day, an international day that spotlights environmental concerns. The elders have their say in the movie. "One of our goals was to have most of the words in the film spoken by elders from indigenous cultures around the world, that would create most of our narrative and they can leave a message they are trying to pass on to the next generation," says Long.
