We're Here
BY JACOB FELIX, LUSAKA, ZAMBIA - After 20 plus hours on a plane and running through airports we have arrived. Of course I had to be the only one to get sick on the way over here, but as soon as we arrived, I immediately began feeling better. This country is amazing; it's one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. The people are friendly, the food has been excellent.
Last night we all gathered at the Lusaka Play House and got a chance to meet with the cast. They are a great group of people. They resemble the characters I imagined as I read the script. We begin shooting on Monday, and after getting some much needed rest yesterday we are all eager to get to working on the film.
