Director Statement

Changing our prejudices towards the African populations is the main reason why I film and take pictures. I met Daniel in 1998 and a few years ago I decided to let the world know its strength and resilience as far as I could. I decided to film with a small handcam full HD to see if it was possible to do a documentary with a basic equipment afordable to must people
