Preparations are underway for an action-packed movie that will be starring amongst others Cameroonian-born Aurelien Henri Obama. Blood Brothers will be shot in Botswana (for the African scenes) and Los Angeles (for the United States scenes). According to it makers, Blood Brothers will be an action adventure martial arts tale of two brothers caught up in a net of poaching, robbery, murder, political and conspiracy. It is hoped that shooting will kick off this November, but its producer, Sebati Edward Mafate (a South African filmmaker and novelist writer who grew up in Botswana and now living Los Angeles, USA for two decades) will confirm in a subsequent edition of African Cocktail, a show run on Afrikkan Radio by Ernest Kanjo. Blood Brothers comes up at a time there is a new wave of African action movie thinkers who are bent on developing this film genre (hitherto considerd to be a thing of Hollywood and China) in Africa. Actor/producer Aurelien Henri Obama has been a great force behind this course.
