Settler's Film Club "Mo and Me- and Me"

Settlers' Film Club presents "Mo and Me - and Me"(Cert PG)

A film about the life and work of Mohamed Amin. Dynamic, energetic, brilliant, photojournalist Mo Amin covered it all - from fear and famine to fame and fortune, from war to wildlife wonders. Mo’s remarkable life was cut tragically short in November 1996 when hijackers took over an Ethiopian airliner forcing it to crash land in the Indian Ocean killing 123 passengers and crew. Mo died on his feet as he attempted to negotiate and reason with the terrorists. By any standards, Mo’s life was truly extraordinary; action-packed, full of pain and passion and inseparable from the troubled chronicle of emergent Africa. This film is especially significant to cameraman Robin Kewell, who worked with Mohamed Amin for several years and Robin will present the film and give his own personal account of his friendship with this remarkable man and reveal some stories from behind the camera.
