We are currently working on a cross-cultural collaboration with Kamila and Kabul based filmmaker Roya Sadat to make a music video for "Beautiful Beast". But, it is challenging and expensive compared to filmmaking in NZ. If we can raise our share of the funds, the project will raise awareness around the empowerment of women and the value of creativity.

Music Video Premiere - Christchurch, New Zealand 25 August 2015

We officially launched the Beautiful Beast music video in Christchurch on Saturday August 22nd at The Gallery and Darkroom. Although the project has still not reached it's funding goals, Roya Sadat from Roya Film House in Afghanistan, sent us the final cut to launch in the hope that it would help inspire and engage people.

We are all very excited and somewhat overwhelmed. x
