We are fortunate to have a talented editor join our team and we are moving forward with a fresh new 5-minute teaser; we can’t wait for our supporters to see it!

Also, we just filmed a new interview with Dena and are planning an interview with a professor of Nigerian studies that will help give context to the film.

As always, we thank you because your support helps us to make this film happen.

Thanks to a dedicated and enthusiastic team in the States and Nigeria, we are putting together all the details for the next phases of filming.

Our document drives are filling up with treatments and charts and our message apps are constantly active as we create our plans.

And, in case you have not seen it on social media, here is a video thank you message from Dena.

 

 

Now that the graduation is over, our crew in Nigeria and the States, are looking back fondly through photos and film and the simple act of recounting our memories together.

We shared a wonderful week with our friends in Tomaro and we are extremely grateful for their gracious hospitality, the joy we shared in celebrating the schools’ achievements and the community’s excitement for the film.

Fortunately, we have captured many beautiful moments in our hearts – and for our film.

Thank you for your support because YOU help to make our trip possible; I can’t wait to relive the week through our new footage because we believe it is really going to make Tomaro’s story shine on the silver screen.

Last but not least, I am overwhelmed by our crew’s dedication, hard work, creativity and the joy each team member added to our travels. Check out the photos below to see most of our crew.

With sincere gratitude,

Kimberly Cecchini, Director/Producer
