Leah’s Walk About 12
Will be the first full-length documentary made for a worldwide
theatrical release. The goal of this project is to promote
positive change through uplifting story telling using real
events, interviews, and evidence of new age life style as it is
evolving. The segments are reality-based; however, the journey
is through the eyes of the beholder, Leah Tunkara. The audience
will be left with a reality-based experience of “being there” to
hear, see, and learn what a specific community of artists are
creating. The information is intended to inspire, entertain,
guide, and enrich the viewer’s sense of possibilities in their
own search for new experiences.
HISTORY OF THE SHOW
The television show ‘Leah’s Walk About’ is presently seeking
development funds that will help facilitate a national TV
series.
The bible for the program has already been crafted though years
of experience and experiments.
Using a variety of English titles like ‘LEAH RADIO’ Ms.Tunkara
has solely produced over 55 productions in nine years. The
vanguard films and shorts have been exhibited on Time Warner
Cable in Hawaii to over 576,000 subscribers. What’s needed now
is an
#2
up grade in production values so that this coverage can be
presented in more competitive markets.
Making ‘LEAH’S WALK ABOUT 12’ is the catalyst.
SOUND TRACK
Reggae Music and Culture unites the world though music!
Yet a variety of music such as Soul, Jazz, House, and live
alternative world music will be included.
Music is a big part this production. Leah as an editor
Incorporates, spiritual symbolisms, interactive, technology,
trends
into the film experience. For example using lyrics to a popular
song for the narrative (instead of just voice- over’s) Leah
calls this, her super-imposed, ‘text message: karaoke.’ This
brews an unpredictable excitement that engages the audience.
Who is the intended audience?
People are reaching ‘for the road less traveled” and these are
multicultural people ranging from the ages of 35 to 54.
Leah’s WALKABOUTS bring the viewer into a specific time and
place and gives you the “reality” experience of enjoying the
moments with her.
The second largest group is from the ages of 25 to 34 year’s old
75% BEING MEN. Primarily from Europe, America, Canada and
Brazil. We are able to get this statistic from:’ Leah’s You Tube
channel ‘LeahTVdotcom '
The channel showcases world class reggae artist like STEEL
PULSE, MIKEY DREAD, and the legendary BOB MARLEY family along
with soulful, up-and-coming stars from Rootz, Dub, and Ska
music. SPOKEN WORD SEGMENTS from her book: FROM HARLEM to MAUI.
Host Leah gives humorous commentary with concerns for
self-sustainability, yogic philosophy, court-ship between the
sexes, discoveries and natural ‘GREEN’ good health.

photographed with LEGENDARY Divas, such as NINA SIMONE and
EARTHA KITT just to name a few. This is an extraordinary ‘walk
of life’!
When we first started the channel LeahTVdotcom Leah said that
she thought ‘it be cool to get 5000 video views in a year.’ Well
it surpass that several time’s over, with the present count
being 199,700 views and still counting.
The written commentary on LeahTVdotcom by people from all over
the world is overwhelmingly positive!
One fella wrote “Leah your god’s gift to the globe.” While most
comments state “YOUR CHANNEL IS BEAUTIFUL, POSITIVE, and
THANK-YOU” are common quotes.
HOW WILL THE FEATURE FILM, BE DIFFERENT FROM THE TV PROGRAM?
LEAH’S WALK ABOUT 12 will be more contrive and not as
spontaneous, yet it will be more personal and cinematically
STUNNING!
As a director, Ms.Tunkara plans to shoot more takes and create
more moods, very similar to a scripted drama.
Leah trained as an actor in Hollywood where, she learned
‘Method acting’. Leah is a ‘pro’ at improvisation.
Leah’s acting coach (Greg Mullavey a television actor and a
direct student of Lee Strasberg!) said ‘LEAH YOU can WRITE ON
YOUR FEET!’
The Story?
Leah sets out to four corners of our world, Hawaii, San
Francisco, India and Spain.
Music Festivals, self sustainability EXZIBITS, social
consciousness,
Speeches, CULTURE and a place called home 1# Maui.
The Four venues of this documentary will show what it look’s
like to coexist and be a ‘dream walker’ like our host. The
answer too many long asked questions will be delivered to the
soul of the viewer!
Aura Blue Ocean seems to follow Leah where ever she goes.
But in San Francisco, there are seagulls

an a Annual Festival that over 15,000 people flock to. Called
2# POWER TO THE PEACEFUL This starts at Golden Gate Park. Leah
will be among the beautiful noisy protesters of America, sitting
on tiny yellow daisy grass’ taking it all in.
3# India, the birth place of Buddha, Imam Pepper, (Leah’s great
Grandfather). Bollywood, Gandhi,Yogananda, and OSHA some of the
greatest Gurus of our time.
Leah will walk barefoot to a peaceful place then go enjoy
delicious India food. More- then- likely an enlighten experience
will happen and evolve!
4# Rototom Sun Splash, the biggest reggae festival in the world!
It has 150,000 in attendants.
Held in Italy for 16 years, it has moved to Spain. Leah will
discover and capture on film what is most colorful!
Located at a seaside resort for 10 days, an unforgettable ‘time
of your life’ is surely to emerge. What is offered is not just
reggae music. After dancing, Leah Tunkara will take part in the
Beyond Music Program @ART symposium, GREENSPLASH AFRICAN
Village, Living Energy, DEBATES, Reggae University.
This trip to Spain would make a great movie in-an-of itself!
However, LEAH’S WALK ABOUT 12 has four vignettes, giving this
film contrast and dimension, leaving our viewers with the award
of getting four movies for the time of one.
