Through open call auditions and our invaluable partnership with New City Fellowship NCF Ministere Francophone, we have discovered incredibly talented individuals who not only bring authenticity to their roles but also embody the spirit and essence of our characters and story. Their unwavering dedication and passion have truly taken our project to new heights.
