Some of you may know that many movies are filmed here in Morocco. Ridley Scott set's from Gladiator, and the big Jerusalem citadel from Kingdom of Heaven are still standing here for people to go visit.
Anyway, being one of the few Americans living here, I randomly meet all sorts of interesting people. One of whom is an artist named Xavier Nellens, who is from Beligium. When we first met, we spent two hours just talking about life etc, during which he told me that he is here filming part his second film. After that we began to talk about it, and after that he cast me to be in it.
You can check out his website
www.nellens.com and watch the trailer, which uses all footage from Brazil. His first film looks interesting but can't be released until after Castro dies because it was shot all in Cuba, and is about the end of Castro's regime.
I thought some of you might be interested in this.
