Voice of an African Nation

HEATH McKINNEY MESA, AZ, USA - I don't think I'm alone when I say that there are a lot of bland movies coming out of the Hollywood Movie Factory these days. Many don't have the excitement and originality that I like. When I watch movies I look for a feel and or taste that makes it real to me. Recently, I've been watching African-themed movies like A FAR OFF PLACE or THE AIR UP THERE. I don't know if it's the novelty of seeing something other than a Hollywood backlot or stories about distinctly different cultures that makes them feel more exciting and original to me. My favorites are movies with tradition and history tied deep down within them.

The African films I have seen thus far reveal the "Heart and Soul" of its people and I'm honored to be a part of a new movie that we hope will contain the heart and soul of Zambia. From the concept to the script and the cast and director, to locations and theme, BAD T!MING reveals the lives and drama of Zambian natives that live life in ways we do not yet understand. It is our individual and collective hope that we will be taken into the heart of the Zambian culture and celebrate that which makes them unique in the world.
