Nashalinaland ... a mystical, magical, mythical place ... a place where dwell the marginal kings and makeshift queens and other royal personages and regal beasts, the high brought low, the low raised to new heights, the castaways, outcasts, lost and downtrodden, you know the ones, the wanderers, hobos, rogues, vagrants, drifters, no-accounts, ne'er-do-wells, starry-eyed vagabonds, miscreants, transients, rejects, factory seconds, dreamers, alchemists ... misfits all who've found a place where they all fit in, yes, that’s right, Nashalinaland, where they matter, where they gain importance and make a difference ... cloaked in smokey nobility, pixie lovers strewn all around, embraced by burning oaks and dancing fairies and cloudy clowns and dreaming pools of moon-lit flowers and chains of vacant streets , all imbued with newfound royalty on fleeting thrones of light and darkness ... all viewed through Nasha’s wide-eyed lens.

Cindy is brilliant and deserving of her fame, no doubt, but she has to do make up, hair styling and costume design before each shot and also she is a great location scout.
