Peace and blessings be with you.
Number 1 of a hundred is officially gone, 99 to go. It has been a long and arduous journey to the production of the second mierkat. This would not have been possible without the help of my wife, who refused to compromise on getting it right, and to Caz , for getting it right! I am literally walking around with 9 copies in my bag, so if there is anyone out there who would like to get their hands on a copy, there’s no time like the now.
Do you also have times in your life when you find yourself so busy, yet you cant see the results of your business? Is this a shortsightedness of the “i” ? Well, tonight there shall be results!!! i am working on a short film project with Jabs, and tonight we block the scenes, i.e determine the positions of the actors cameras for every scene of his latest short film.
Jabs in Mauritania, or the western Sahara, or northern Mali....
And so from one film make to the next. Nafia and his wife run a production company called Shamanic Organic, no it has nothing to do with magic mushrooms or South American indigenous cactus plants. They have been running their Film / Documentary production company for around 6 years now, and have attended a screening of a documentary they made “hip hop revolution” in Chicago last year.

We are planning to shoot another short film… but more about that later.
salaam.
