im from Nairobi Kenya-anyone out there from the same region?or anywhere in africa?

I have a feature film project that has been in post-production since last August. We were supposed to be making final edits right now, but unfortunately due to personal reasons my editor has only completed 15% of the rough cut and has asked to bow out. That means I need an editor or team of editors, preferably local to the Austin area, and soon. I can't pay you, unfortunately, but I hope that if two or three editors come on board each of you can have a light workload and get some great footage for your reels and IMDb credit for your resume. If you're interested, please send me an e-mail at kayfilmscasting@gmail.com. Here is a brief synopsis: The film is a full-length feature about a woman caught in a multi-generational cycle of depression. Catherine grew up in foster care due to her mother's neglect, and now the birth of her first child and the following post-partum depression has made it all too much to bear. She attempts suicide and fails. When she wakes up in the hospital, she tells her husband that she can't do it anymore, and she can't let her child continue the cycle. It would be better if she wasn't around. So she leaves, telling her husband to pretend she's dead, and watches her child grow from afar. 5 years later, she's still watching. She works as a waitress where she meets Agnes, a sweet but frank older woman who takes an interest in her. They become friends, and Agnes gives her the tough love she needs. Agnes also reunites Catherine with her mother, who lives nearby and is watching Catherine's life from afar. To Catherine's surprise, her mother is happy, full of life, and takes pride in her appearance and the cleanliness of her home the way she never did when Catherine was a child. With the sudden possibility of a normal, happy life, Catherine decides to return to her daughter's life. The question is, will her husband and his family let her back in?
