I'm reading a book called Seven Years in Tibet. It's about Heinrich Harrer, an Austrian Olympic gold medal winner who, because of his nationality in British-occupied India, gets placed in a prison camp in India when World War II breaks out. He was voyaging to India en route to climb the highest peak in the Himalayas. But, held up in the camp, his plans are thwarted. So he makes some bold attempts at escape, and finally succeeds. He gains his freedom by going through Tibet. He then spends seven years there, where he becomes close friends with the Dalai Lama. It's a really cool story.
Especially because it's completely true.
If you think the story is cool but you're a lazy bum, I think they made it into a motion picture with Brad Pitt. If you see it, tell me if Brad looks as hot as I think he does.

Hey Jessica, it's Jonathan of My Life On A Plate. Read your comments and thanks.
Your suggestion makes me think you may have some contacts in Africa in regards to production? TV? Film?
If not, that's fine, I just figured it was worth a shot asking as we have been considering going out there.
Thanks for any help.
All my best,
Jonathan.
Hey Jessica, got your email, we're always looking for mostly feature film stuff, so media companies/investors/government agencies, etc. that may be interested in film investments. We have a biography pic that I think would do well shooting there.
Thanks again.
