With Grandpa help and hints I was able to open the trailer. I love the music, voices and the colorful people. And of course the styles of dress are fascinating to me. The overlay of the pictures is very interesting. I hope you can bring the film so we can view it in San Diego. Thanks for sharing

The film looks fanatsic! (it took me a few tries to figure it out too, aunt robin :) ). Way to go Jeremy--what a work of art. I hope we can see the whole thing as well!

i'll definitely bring a copy to San Diego. Glad you enjoyed the trailer. It was fun going around New York City with Jeremy learning about this culture, tasting their food, etc, etc. We went to many events.

Actually, when we went to Dallas for the Mary Kay film, what made that conference so interesting for us, was that the top 5 sales ladies for Mary Kay this year, were from Africa. It made complete sense from getting to know their culture here in NY. They are very supportive to each others businesses and the women have a very strong social bond, the perfect environment for a booming Mary Kay business. Jeremy and I almost wanted to bring Mary Kay back to the NY African community.

How interesting! Is the Mary Kay film in the works still? I'd love to see it; Mary Kay is an intriguing company, in my opinion.

Naima-
The trailer was incredible. The accents and the clothes were all very familiar from when I lived in Ghana. I am also very excited to see the movie. Thanks so much for sharing the link.
