This has been around for a few years (trying to raise enough money to finish the film), but seems like there's now an updated trailer.

Looks like it could be good PR for stamp collecting!

It would have been nice to know who some of the speakers were in that clip. But I do wonder if concentrating on a comparatively niche area of philately - one that requires a very deep pocket indeed - would attract many uncommitted viewers.
The fellow who mentioned his son's enthusiasm for basketball, and realised that 'Basketball on Stamps' was not going to interest the boy much - now I can relate to that.
Stamps as works of art would be a better way to attract people's attention, I believe. Or stamps as a window onto history. (But then I am just rehearsing my own prejudices.)

Any familiar with this "yet to be completed" documentary film on stamp collecting called "Freaks and Errors - A Rare Collection"?
