 Contemporary Zambian Music, Images & Film
To get into the rhythm of the country, I've been asking Jabbes to share contemporary Zambian music. I'm particularly fond a song called KAYA by Danny. In Jamaica, "kaya" can be slang for pot (as in when Bob Marley sang, got to have kaya now) but in Zambia, the translation is "I don't know." Give a listen ... I hear the singer may be touring the U.S. in the next year ... if everything gets approved and worked out.
The also sent a link to a site with Stephen Robinson Photos of Zambia. There are some really beautiful images on this site of some of the most beautiful waterfalls, plains and animals in Zambia.
We've started the process of getting approvals for bringing the equipment into the country to shoot the feature and the documentary. I'm eager to see how long this takes. They want to encourage the film industry to come to Zambia to film (given the images on Stephen Robinson's site, one could get some remarkable footage) -- depending on what it takes to get approvals. So, I'll keep you posted on what it takes to make it happen.
