USA 2007 | DV 40 min.
Dir. Eric Matthies, Tricia Todd
In Ghana, a rural village eagerly awaits a shipment of recycled bicycles
from the United States. The majority of the bikes are sold in a colorful frenzy
to pay for shipping costs, while the best bikes are set aside to take to the
village.
Ayamye* chronicles the lives of Nurse Letitia and Seth before they
get the bicycles and again one year later. These two individuals are very
different from each other, the common thread being the need for transportation
and the wish for positive development in their community. “Ayamye” is
a moving, life-affirming film that proves sustainable solutions to crisis
are not always complex.
