society. there can't be a good film about jesus which does not bring in reality jesus his message was really interesting since he was a social revolutionary and said that the last would be the 1st. i asked myself who the last were today and they are in these camps these people on the margins of society who produced tomatoes for us so that's when i said it had to be about them ski slope. back in metairie and antony isn't shooting any scenes today so he's going to do some sightseeing. i've never been to my that i before it's true as this we did that brought me here both in my there at the days it's a beautiful place to be. a beautiful mountain. you see how this. i like this area. anthony got to know alexander through the film project alexander is from ghana and
