From Box (folk) to Box (film)!
One day Pepe Belmonte was sitting inside 'Folk In A Box'. http://folkinabox.com/
And while he was inside a man called Sebastian Michael was sitting outside, passing a few minutes. Sebastian and Pepe met with the Rev. Gary Davis' 'Cocaine Blues' and a script was exchanged. A few moments later 'The Hermit's Waltz' was heard and then music was used in a feature film written and directed by Sebastian Michael. Pepe Belmonte appears as 'The Singer'.
Film history is being made at the website below. Go fund a frame!
