We've just LAUNCHED a KICKSTARTER campaign to finish the film and execute a marketing and distribution plan for its release. Timing is critical with the eyes of the world watching the headlines about the Crisis in the Sahara.
Beyond the mystical city of Timbuktu.... Mamatal, the son of a Tuareg chief sets out on a journey across the Sahara to save his culture known as the "blue people of the Sahara" before they disappear. But when the North African government of Mali collapses, he finds himself caught up in an international crisis brewing in the desert - a battle between Tuareg rebels fighting for independence and Al Qaeda bent on taking over the Sahara to plot future terrorist attacks against the United States and Europe.
