Holiday Films & Nimble Content director Brent Foster has created a remarkable series of short films called ‘While I’m Here – The Legacy Project’. The idea is to document older people (60+) who are passing along important skills or traditions to a younger generation.
Brent has just released the latest video in the series - Nalongo, the story of a retired midwife in rural Uganda.
This has been a passion project for Brent who has travelled the world seeking out these amazing people. He’d like to conclude the series with a homegrown Canadian story to coincide with Canada’s 150th birthday. Do you know someone like this? Someone with a mastery of a skill or a cultural tradition they are passing along? If so, Brent could be interested in filming their story.
