Shalom,
This weeks guest on The Arts, Culture & Us is Elijah Mothershed of BottomLine Productions has recently returned from
the West African country, Sierra Leone during a six month long onsite
cultural investigative study and recording of the people's views as
to the new post-war era of rebuilding. From 1991 to 2002 the Sierra
Leone was locked in a horrific fratricidal war ended by the largest UN
peacekeepers disarmament undertaking ever. The documentary, which is
under construction by Mr. Mothershed, will highlight the new positive
revitalization of a country torn to pieces behind the sale (trade) of
guns for diamonds. In Hollywood they call it the Blood Diamond incident.
We'll show about ten minutes of actual Africans speaking about the
new attitudes and aspirations straight from the mouths and hearts of the
Africans themselves; come back to Africa part 1.
. The name of Elijah Mothersheds soon to be completed
documentary is; "Rising From the Ashes of War: The Re-Branding of
Sierra Leone"
Blaze-Out!
