I mixed two ideas on a whim and put this out one morning. Totally unplanned.

I was in Egypt at an eco-village swimming with and filming
wild dolphins when one day I needed a particular shot.

As I walked out, there was a man from Holland sitting quietly in his chair reading.
I walked over and asked him if I could use his hand for a moment … (giggling)
then shared that it was for my film and described its purpose. He said ‘sure’.

I now needed another beautiful hand of ‘colour’.
Noticing around the corner there were some Egyptian men working.
I walked up and asked the same of one of them. He obliged kindly.
What these two men did not realize were the implications they were having on our world
simply by putting their hands together for the shot.
Even though they could not speak one anothers language they spoke loudly by touch.

Peace is so easy.

A cinematic play on life, like a piece of art.
Hope you enjoy it in its simplicity.

“Self-importance is our greatest enemy. Think about it –
What weakens us is feeling offended by the deeds and misdeeds of our fellowmen.
Our self-importance requires that we spend most of our lives offended by someone.”

“Talk to the plant until you lose your self importance.”
~ Don Juan Carlos Casteneda
