Opening night at the Pan African Film Festival was a festival of color, culture, celebrities, press, actors, producers and a taste of Africa!
As the Red Carpet rolled out, one by one celebrities celebrated the opening night of the 17th Pan African Film Festival.
Jerusalema was a great film but a little too dark for the opening night~ Almost like an African's version of Singleton's "Boys In The Hood", this true story of drugs, crime and the constant struggle of survival was well written and the actors were great. I just thought the opening night should have began with a film that themed multi-culturalism, unity, world peace, nation united or something.. This is probably because we Americans see so much of this type of protrayal that I was looking for another dimension of our lives shown on the screen from a perspective of another country.
The question answer section surprised me because well the audience thought the movie was great, the majority of the people that asked the questions thought that the movie did not have any positiveness or a good role model of a chararacter. I thought the movie was great and the exact protrayal of that particular lifestyle..it just should have been shown as the second or third film featured!
"Lyfestyles" Tv was in the house is will soon be releasing video of the interviews produced by Ed Magik.
