“Amir” a Full Lenght Documentary Film

Actually i recieved this email few weeks ago from Gutierrez “Teng” Mangansakan II and i forgot to post it. I can’t wait to see the output of this docu-film project.
I meet Teng last week and i got a chance to see the docu-film project proposal but unluckily Teng won’t let me show the “sequence treatment” of the said docu-film project. Its confidential! hehe. :)

I think this week the pre-production is on finishing touch then the coming weeks is the start of production - filmming/shooting! I wonder what would be my part in the production?

I see this film will envade every house of Moro TV sets and other’s who are interested with the Ash-Shayk Ash-Shaheed Salamat Hashim lifes and work who greatly contributed and influence their life as of now.

Check the Announcement of the Amir Production Team thru email:

Dear everyone,

We are proud to announce that the production of a documentary on Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) founding Chair Salamat Hashim is proceeding on full swing!

‘Amir,’ the working title of the film, is derived from the term Ameerul Mujahideen, an honorific bestowed upon the late Chairman.

A documentary on the life of Hashim hopes to unlock the person behind the principled historical figure providing a better understanding of this man as well as the social and ideological impact of the organization which he founded.

Starting with the award winning ‘House under the Crescent Moon,’ this project will be the fourth installation of a series of documentaries on the armed conflict in Mindanao by Gutierrez Mangansakan II. It is hoped that ‘Amir’ follows the same sensitive depiction of the Moro people’s quest for peace and their right to chart their own destinies as its predecessors.

We ask everybody to pray for the success of this production. We also encourage everybody to help us through research, financing, logistical, and moral support.

For more info, please email morofilm@yahoo.com or text/call 0920.9049336.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

AMIR PRODUCTION TEAM

If you think you can be of help, please dont hesitate to contact Teng with the email and mobile numbers above.

    I’ve got an Amazon gift certificate burning holes in my pocket,
    and I want to get the most bang for my buck.

    Enter the Secret Amazon Web Pages:

    http://tinyurl.com/38sojf

    This is where you’re going to find the “latest sales, rebates, and limited-time offers” from
    Amazon, and you can score some pretty deep discounts if you’re a savvy shopper.

    Next, there’s the special Sale link. This is open every Friday, and ONLY on Fridays.

    You can find the same good discounts here as you would in hidden Deals, although some
    Fridays you can really get lucky and make off like an Amazon bandit - I’ve seen discounts
    there as low as 75% off sticker price.
