great short film

I have no idea how people managed to come to a conclusion that lighter skin means you're more beautiful. As a man, I'm color blind when it comes to beauty. As a photographer, I've worked with models of all races. Some of the most beautiful girls I worked with were very dark. The smile would rock my world, dark skin always emphasizes big bright smiles. That's absolutely beautiful.

Girls need to be taught from a young age to love themselves, love what they have. I always tell all my female friends and girls I date, you need to be a little bit conceited. There's nothing wrong with it. That's confidence in one's beauty, but just a little bit.

I really enjoyed this short film, shows you life from a different perspective. This would be a great project to tackle for feature film that I think some networks would love to get their hands on.
