The Movie, Rajo?what are your after thoughts?

Recommended Posts

Faheema.   

The tittle of the film "Rajo" should give you a clue of the message the producer is trying to convey.

 

To me, it sounds like a realistic movie. Our people tend to think Somalis never do wrong and we class ourselves as being "saints". Among us we have those who are selling/using drugs, guns and getting upto all kind of things which are both unlawful and unislamic behaviour. Whether it's "Unsomali" or not, this film unveils the current situation in our community. Sadly, this will not be a learning curve but rather dismissal from our part.

 

I wonder how much longer will we remain in denial?

Yeah Nomadic..we have it in Aussie..I think you should talk to the right ppl..ehm..ehmm..such as legends, myths and so on...heheheh

Seriously tho, you can go to Footscray Mall - "Africa or music hall of fame" shop...i think that is what they call the shop...say to them "Legend has send you and you will get a nice discount"...er'...I dont work there..So dont ask for Legend... coz PPl may stare at you...

 

Hope that Helped...

i saw the movie, i have to say though, the Title "hope" doesnt match the plot. at 1st it made sence. then came the part where homeboy fell in love with some chick(ayan), then i lost it... here is a guy who is trying to find who killed his brother... and on this hand, he's falling in love , so you wonder, is this film about love? is it about revenge? is it about somali people caught in the wrong situations ?

 

 

in any case, its an excellent start for my good friend abdisalam atto. with this film, he answers the questtions surrounding ohio and its " Tuulo" reputation. with views from up top and down low and by the lake, he shows how beautifull ohio is.

 

i hear he's working on another film " 5 questions: about somalia" and the likes of Abdi Bille are taking part in it. if he keeps up, i see him in the big leagues.

 

 

i'm ghost.
