FOR THE LOVE OF THE DEAD

"Everyone is a good person when they're dead". 
                                                            Bell McCain 'Where Children Play'.



I choose to be candid in this submission.

Two men have died. Two men who were president of the Ghana actors guild. Both died amidst health and financial setbacks.

Mr Odoi Sam was the person who helped me realize that I'd always wanted to a filmmaker. I don't suppose most knew that. Down the line, his ideologies and mine clashed.

I had conversation with one of the executives of the Ghana Actors guild last week. I was curious about the objectives of the guild, what benefits members derived, etc.
