Behind the Scenes

"Jacob was only 5 years old when he discovered his shadow for the first time. At first he didn’t know what this illuminating imprint was as the candles in the room gave more life to this new friend of Jacobs. Night-time fell across the African continent. The darkness was like a black velvet cloth that spread over the night sky with stars of silk beams sewn across the beautiful African sky. Jacob's mother came to light the candle in his room, for she knew that keeping a candle alight would drive away the evil spirits. That was 2years ago - by now Jacob was 7years old and had put two years of sheer will power into his new and exciting friend - his shadow. The township he lived, in believed the boy to be possessed and Jacob was constantly bullied by the other children. "
