INK Cosmetics named make-up brand for the film "Look at the sun and smile"

"Look at the sun and smile"
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger


We are proud and honored to be apart of this international film!  INK...Cosmetics will be the cosmetics brand behind the film!  AMAZING!  Find our products at http://www.shopinkcosmetics.com/

About the film:

Directed by: GAUTHIER ROUBICHOU
Cast: GAUTHIER ROUBICHOU (director / as Dejan), DEJAN MIJOVIC (as himself), KATHLEEN GATI (as herself), OLIVIA RUIZ (as Clara, Dejan’s girlfriend), DOLORES GUEVARA (as herself), PAUL NGUYEN (as Mr Paul, theatre Director during the party), NERY (co-director for the French part / as himself ), GILLES LABARBE (Chief Operator / Co-Producer), FRANK MARTY (Original Sound Track Composer).

Smile at the sun (working title) is an 80 minute feature film, shot in France, Argentina and USA starting February, 2012.

The story is based on the life of Dejan Mijovic, a Slovenian photographer / globetrotter who became a quadriplegic 2 years ago, after an accident (simply by falling in the street) a summer evening by the slovenian sea side.

Synopsis:

Dejan wakes up in a hospital but is not hurt. He doesn't understand why or where he is.

He goes out and finds himself in the world: Sometimes in South America with a beggar, sometimes in America with a star.

He wakes up in a hospital again, but he's not hurt. He doesn't understand why or where he is.

He gets out, he is in the South of France, by the mediteranean sea or in Slovenia facing his destiny.

Dejan travels, lives, breathes. Dejan trips and falls. And gets back on his feet.

Until he meets Dejan. Hang on, where are we? Who is he?

He is a passionate photographer who doesn't know if he is in a dream or in a nightmare.. he is a young european who forgot where he is from?

Until he wakes up in a hospital. and he is not hurt. or maybe he is.

A vibrant true story of love, of friendship, and of will. A story of our generation : young and passionate people... Who smile at the sun.

Keep in mind that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
