HAITIAN HOPE

October 7, 2008 @ 6:34 pm

We are very proud to have produced Haitian Hope, a short film bringing to light the issues in Haiti brought on by four storms that devastated the small country. The film was produced in conjunction with Partners In Health, an organization with the simple goal to do whatever it takes. Partners in Health is a worldwide organization dedicated to bringing health care and education to those who need it. For us, creating this film was both moving and heart breaking. The goal was to bring awareness.

BACK FROM HAITI

September 22, 2008 @ 3:52 pm

Compelled by the unimaginable destruction brought on by four tropical storms in less than a month, we were compelled to reached out to Partners In Health (PIH) to shoot a short film and help raise awareness.  We spent four days in Haiti documenting the damage and meeting the people struggling to recover from this epic tragedy. BZ Films met with Partners In Health personel who are working around the clock to help the people of Haiti.

It was truly an incredible, moving and heart breaking experience. Check back soon for the film and donate to Partners In Health.
