I think Beth and Scott Noelle and girls are in this documentary. I met them at the RE conference in 2009 in Texas and enjoyed several Nia dancing sessions with Beth, and singing in the unchoir with them.
Though it's early days for homeschooling in India, I am working on a documentary film to bring awareness. Could do with a lot of advice and tips. My dream is that homeschooling and unschooling will lead the way to big changes in the way learning happens around the world.
Parts of Europe are quite happy with their schools though...
