I would like to say congratulation!
This is a victory for all Ethiopians.
By the way, I am a post graduate student in literature in English language in Mekelle university. I planned to conduct a research on the movie TEZA. But I couldn’t get the film script. I will be very glad if you attach on my g mail account or send in the mail: Mekelle University, Adi-Haki campus, p.o.box 451.
Thank you

Congra Prof!
It is really nice as it touched a lot of issues.
But I also expect (may be another movie) that touches up on the current situations in Ethiopia.

I saw “Teza” at Edna mall, It is the best Amharic film I have ever seen! Prof. Haile, you are a great man. I respect you very much. Ethiopia is lucky to have a son like you! Also your interview with Aljazeera TV is good.

Dear Professor haile Gerima

I am proud of you. For me, Teza is the best film I have ever seen. You are a model for Africans. I promise I will follow you by doing the best in my work.

I watched Teza and i thought “now they have made a movie in Ethiopia”. It is spectacular. i think every Ethiopian should see this film. And the awards it is receieving are well-deserved. Thanks Haile Gerima, I am deeply proud of you!

Selam

Gashe Professor Haila Gerima, I am proud of you. I learned many things about myself about Ethiopia/Africa by watching your films. I loved your ‘TEZA’ film so much. I and many Ethiopians/Africans need to find our original selves. I live in Addis Ababa. Our models are Hollywood actors and we are living in an era of mental slavery by the western culture. I think your movies show us how to be real Ethiopians by showing our fabric and what we are really made of. I want to follow you Gashe Haile.

Thanks a lot.

[...] So remember my post about the guy with the thing in the place? Well, turns out veteran Ethiopian filmmaker (and friend of my dad’s) Haile Gerima won not only one, but two awards at Venice for his new film Teza: Special Jury Prize and Best Screenplay. [...]
