Revolutions Per Minute

We here at afromullets are not ones to talk very much and barely have much to add to our posts as we are most probably suffering on some mild form of ADD.

I do hope you can take a few minutes out of your time and read this post. I have just gotten word of a very interesting film project currently in the making that might be of interest to you. The film is called 'Revolutions Per Minute' and tells the story of an upcoming rapper and his journey of finding his voice in the midst of the explosion of hip-hop in the 1990's and being thrown into unfamiliar world as he finds himself in streets of Paris.

Among those involved in the project is a young director, Tim Gregory out of Vienna, Austria who has recently completed his first feature film "Political Animals". He is also known for an award-winning short film called "The Strange Case of Salman abd al Haqq" which is one of the first to ever deal with the subject of CIA-sponsored torture. Tim has teamed up with the New York producer John Reefer whose most recent project "Kinyarwanda" was awarded the Audience Choice Award at the most recent Sundance Film Festival. Additionally I would like to add that the film was written by Tim himself alongside Mzwandile Sibanda (also out of Vienna), and is also going to be directing and editing the movie himself. This film project proves to be very promising through an interesting plot backed by a very talented director-producer team.

Aside from the riveting plot in itself, this project has the potential for a great soundtrack. There is just so much amazing music I can think of when trying to visualize the burgeoning hip-hop scene in the 90's.

I hope you stay tuned as we keep you posted with more details as this project gets under way. Maybe I'll be able to share all the familiar names out of the hip-hop world that are looking to get involved in this project (acting and producing) in my next update...
