Production News South Africa

A milestone in movie production

Anant Singh, a leading international film producer from South Africa, is launching a unique contest for the production of his new venture, based on the book Echoes of Love From Heavens Above, by New York's Mickey Nivelli. The grand prize for the contest is R100,000.

Instead of post-production changes and test screenings normally conducted by some studios, Anant is inviting audience participation with the script itself. The strategy will prove cost-effective, plus give the audience a sense of direct involvement with the production of the movie.

Echoes of Love From Heavens Above, is a true-life love story of Lotte Joseph who triumphed over vicious horrors with the purity of her love. From a total of 123 scenes in the book, contestants will choose five of the best scenes, and five that should be excluded from the movie version.

An independent panel of experts will select the winner, with a tie- breaking question, if necessary. Further contest details are available at or by Fax 27.31.202.5000 and book details are available at www.echoesoflove.com.

The feature film options for Echoes of Love From Heavens Above were recently acquired by Anant Singh, who produced soul-stirring movies like Sarafina, Cry My Beloved Country and many more. He has also been rewarded by the living legend, Nelson Mandela, with exclusive rights to make a movie out of his book Long Walk to Freedom.
