Puus que 41 heures, pour soutenir un projet vraiment magnifique…
C’est à la lueur d’une bougie que Guetty Felin écrit depuis son plateau, afin de solliciter chacun d’entre nous pour mener à bien le tournage de son premier long métrage ATITI MON AMOUR.
Elle remercie ses supporters et rappelle que le décompte est bientôt terminé.
« Why must we only evoke tales of sorrow and misery when it comes to places like Haiti? » est la question qu’elle pose à travers ce film. En effet, pourquoi évoque-t-on que la tristesse et la misère quand on parle de lieux comme Haiti ? C’est pourquoi, elle met en scène ce film (en trois histoires) autour de quatre personnages, dans un village de pêcheurs : ORFEO, un garçon de 16 ans qui découvre qu’il a des pouvoirs, JAURES et sa femme ODESSA, couple de vieux pêcheurs dont la mystérieuse maladie est guérissable par la mer, ADELE, une femme surprenante qui refait surface après une disparition de 10 ans et que seule une poignées de personnes peut la voir. Voilà le projet magnifique qui n’attend que vous.
Réalisatrice, Guetty Felin est aussi productrice et distributrice. Elle a récemment distribué TEY (AUJOURD’HUI) du Sénégalo-Français Alain Gomis (Etalon d’or, Fespaco 2013, qualifié aux Oscars 2014).

Only 41 hours left to support a really wonderful project…
Hello friends and supporters of Ayiti Mon Amour(AQ),
I am writing this note by candle light. The power has been out for the last few hours and luckily I had an extra computer battery and an internet jump drive.
We are down to the wire on our campaign. We’ve come a long way and still have quite a few miles to go before we can reach our goal. Our numbers are pretty good for a campaign with only 149 funders.
On Sunday, we were blessed with a very generous contribution which allowed us to quickly make a huge leap. I am so grateful to all of our funders for your support and generosity. I’ve always believed in the kindness of strangers and received so much support from folks from all over the world, IA few weeks ago I did not have any friends in the Philippines or Lebanon but because of this campaign now I have.
We’ve only been here one week and have already completed 5 days of production. We have the support of everyone here in this wonderful little hamlet on the Southeastern coast of Haiti. Judging from the great performances I am getting from the actors and the quality of my team I can already tell you that we are on the road to making a pretty spellbinding film. You will not regret joining me on this adventure. Tomorrow, I will share with you a few pictures the wonderful crew and actors who are making this journey so magical. In the meantime you can go to our tumblr blog.
But it’s not over yet. We have 51 hours until our campaign ends. At the moment we are 66% funded and need 7,919 to reach our goal. Many of you have pledged to contribute, there’s no better time than now. With your help I am confident that we will make it.
A million thanks to all current and the future supporters.
Warmly,
Guetty

Many anonymous funders.
A BREAKDOWN OF HOW THE CAMPAIGN FUNDS WILL BE SPENT:
Crew/ Talent/local staff = 7,600
Craft services and meals, groceries = 1,200
Round trip travel from US for 6 = 3,115
Lodging in Kabic (rental for bungalows) = 1,000
Equipment rental hard drive purchasing = 500
Car rental and gas= 1,350
Editor’s Salary for 2 months= 4,000
Editing station = 1,400
Gifting and postage= ,200
9% Indiegogo fees +contingency = 1,913
For a total of: ,178.00
WHY IS THE BUDGET SO LOW
We have a very small crew; we’re using all real locations so no real set design. The props are borrowed from the villagers. We shoot all in natural light, using reflectors, mirrors, diffusers, candles, kerosene lamps to capture the realist look of the film. We are also getting some in-kind donations of equipment gear, and we own some equipment as well, camera and sound.
The international crew is being paid the SAG (Screen Actor’s Guild) ultra low budget rate of 0 per day. They have agreed to be paid half of the salaries after the shoot and the other half on a deferral. Actors and crew in Haiti are being paid a daily ultra low budget rate as well. None of the local salaries will be deferred; everyone will be paid at the end of the shoot
