England and studied Film and Economics at Middlebury College in Vermont. An
entrepreneur from an early age, Brandon started an online natural health
company and grew it to be the largest in Europe. After several years working with
Fortune 500 companies on Wall Street, Brandon gave it all up to be an
independent filmmaker. He often wonders how his brothers duped him into
traveling across Africa on $10 dollars a day. He is currently a strategy consultant
and director at Collaboration King.


Born March 12th 1980 in St. Paul Minnesota, Nicholas Klein grew up in England
and studied Philosophy, Religion and Ethics at the University of London. Nicholas
was a child actor in a Gerry Anderson’s sci-fi series ‘Space Precinct’ and it was
this experience that got him interested in film. He made his first documentary at
the age of 16 about the aggressive skating scene in London (Crown Jewels), which
went on to be one of the UK’s most successful action sports films. Nicholas is
currently an addiction counselor at one of the nations finest institutions.


Born August 25th 1982 in St. Paul Minnesota, Daniel Klein grew up in England
and majored in Political Movements at NYU. An activist from an early age, Daniel
has been involved in a number of human rights and social justice causes around

prestigious New York City restaurant.


Born August 14th 1983 in Minneapolis Minnesota, Tim Klein grew up in the
Twin Cities and studied Film, Communications and African History at the
University of Minnesota. Africa has been an important part of Tim’s life since
listening to his father and grandfather tell stories of their experiences on the
continent. Tim has been traveling and working in Africa since high school and it
was those experiences that inspired him to make a film about the complexities of
development in Africa. Tim is currently working on a project about oil in Nigeria.
