Dear St Fleur
You got me thinking my friend and I want to signal to problem in the Haitian movie industry.

We try to produce film just like we do Politics...

In the States where I do a lot of productions for a different market, I want to signal to you that the technicians are there to work together to produce high level productions...I have Haitians thinking that in order to produce a movie they must be the camera man or the Grip guy...we do not work together.

As fa as the contents...well we need to create scripts that deal with our own culture and issues so we can send positive messages to the foreigner and get him to be interested in our culture.

Do what he does is not going to make our products attractive.

Because sometime he is looking for something other than what he is used to...

let's not even talk about telling a producer not to sell for 5,000...'that is unheard of.
