Courtesy of the film's website, the story goes... Acrobats Guillaume Saladin and Yamoussa Bangoura met in Montreal’s acclaimed Cirque Eloize. They hail from distant parts of the globe - Guillaume from an Inuit village called Igloolik in the Canadian Arctic, Yamoussa from the Guinean city of Conakry. Yet they share a common dream, which is to revitalize their struggling communities through the power of performance. Both Igloolik and Conakry are reeling from a legacy of colonialism that has decimated their cultures and caused desperate social problems: Drugs, apathy and suicide in the Arctic, wretched poverty and massive unemployment in Guinea. Their response to the hardships was to found circuses – Guillaume created Artcirq, Yamoussa started Kalabante.

Hi Tambay. Thanks for the nice article and thanks very much for baking my project. Every
I used a Rode as well. Plus the audio on the Mark III was surprisingly good for basic b-roll.
Wooden acting and unoriginal storylines
The writing SUCKS!!! I hope it improves with epi 2, if not, I'm out.
I like this poster MUCH BETTER than that last "impressionist painting" poster of a poster.
