Charles Abelmann’s documentary Call Me Waya World Premiere April 5th, 2025 NYC and Release of Shifting Paths

Charles Abelmann’s latest release of two short documentaries, “Call Me Waya” and “Shifting Paths” illustrate the diversity of his work in crossing borders and cultures to bridge our understanding of the human experience with internal and external challenges. As a new comer to filmmaking after a long career in international development and education leadership, Abelmann’s films are being critically celebrated for their insight and impact, informed by his understanding of both child and adult development. Both his new films look at multi-generational perspectives to understand family but with totally different approaches and in different cultures. Abelmann, a Duke and Harvard alum, values the documentary form to contribute to global and historical understanding, celebrating individual narrative.

Luray, VA, United States, 2nd Apr 2025 – Charles Abelmann’s documentary,

 

“Call Me Waya” has its world premiere on Saturday April 5th  at the Quad Cinema in NYC. The NYC festival has received significant news coverage for the quality of their programming over the last 25 years and discovering new and emerging talent. “Call Me Waya” provides an intimate look into the life of an octogenarian outsider artist, Julian Espinosa Rebollido — also known as Wayacón or Waya. Despite his age, he is prolific, producing fantastical, childlike work that often incorporates found materials, a necessary approach reflecting the state of widespread scarcity in Cuba. The film reflects Wayacón’s extensive body of work, his struggle with substance abuse, his volatile relationship with his family, and the role of Sandra Levinson of the Center for Cuban Studies in bringing Cuban art to the United States and beyond. Abelmann partnered with the Cuban artists for filming and music composition.  

“Call Me Waya” is a compelling portrait of self-taught Cuban artist Wayacón (Julian Espinosa Rebollido), weaving together themes of creative resilience, the realities of his context, and a lifetime of work on the fringes of the art world. The film resonates with broad audiences and students alike, showcasing Wayacón’s ability to transform discarded materials into profound expressions of life and memory.”

“We are thrilled this April to have A World Premiere of “Call Me Waya“ at the esteemed Havana Film Festival New York (HFFNY) followed by a showing at the Gibara Film Festival in Cuba (Festival Internacional De Cine Gibara) and a community showing in the town where Wayacón lives, Remedios. I make movies to let audiences enter the life experience of others to deepen understanding of our universal hopes and challenges,” says Abelmann.

Abelmann also just released a compelling historical documentary – “Shifting Paths” on his family and their out of Germany path to the United States in 1939.

“Shifting Paths” is a multi-generational story of resilience, tracing the impact of Aryanization on the Abelmann family and how Kamillosan—a once-banned chamomile medicinal product—survives today, though few know of its origins. Abelmann’s grandfather, Arthur Abelmann, founded the Chemiewerk in Bad Homburg Germany in 1920. After Hitler’s rise to power, the Doctors’ Association banned all of Abelmann’s medical products, forcing his grandfather to sell a family business and to send his family to Switzerland on the eve of Boycott Saturday, April 1, 1933. By using first-person narratives, family photographs, letters, and archival footage, the film juxtaposes Frankfurt’s vibrant Jewish life with the rise of the Nazi regime. The film showcases resilience, Jewish heritage, and collective memory, exploring themes of loss, privilege, survivor’s guilt, and discrimination. By preserving personal and historical archives, it underscores the importance of remembering the past to better understand contemporary struggles with immigration and human rights.

Shifting Paths shows a touching and illuminating multi-generational story about the director’s grandfather’s dispossession of his Frankfurt factory in 1933 and his father’s refugee experience. Using a remarkable range of fortuitously preserved documents and photos, it connects us to a past at once still visible and tangible yet almost lost to the people who live where it happened. The film also is a shining example for us today of what can come of American openness to refugees.”

– Professor Peter Hayes, Northwestern University professor and chair of the Academic Committee of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum

Anant Ambani’s 140 Km Walk to Dwarka: Defying Health Struggles with Faith and Determination

Anant Ambani, the youngest son of the Ambani family, one of the world’s most prominent and influential families, is known for his commitment to both business and philanthropy. Recently, Anant has embarked on a deeply personal padyatra to the holy Dwarkadhish Temple in Dwarka, seeking spiritual blessings ahead of his 30th birthday.

As a mark of his faith and devotion, Anant is walking over 140 km from his hometown of Jamnagar to Dwarka. To avoid causing any disturbance during the day, he undertakes this journey at night and aims to complete it on the auspicious occasion of Ram Navami.

Despite facing significant health challenges, Anant’s commitment to his padyatra remains steadfast. Anant has battled severe lung disease, extreme thyroid issues, and Cushing’s syndrome since childhood, conditions that have caused physical limitations . Despite these lifelong health struggles, they have never defined his spirit, and he has overcome his health issues with positivity and determination. Each night, he walks with unwavering determination, refusing to let his challenges hold him back from achieving his goals, whether spiritual or professional.

Anant Ambani’s ability to push through these hardships is a testament to his strength of character and deep-rooted faith. Anant’s walk is not just about devotion, but also a reflection of how faith gives him the courage to overcome even the toughest challenges.

Funded Trading Meets Real Execution: Propmax Prime Launches with TradingView Integration

Propmax Prime quietly enters the funded trading space with one big difference: no demos, no filters — just real trades from day one. Built on top of Leverate’s tech and fully integrated with TradingView, Propmax gives traders the tools they actually use, in the market that actually moves.The system was first designed by Tokio Kenzo — a name no one’s ever seen, but whose logic shapes every rule in place. He passed the keys to Febre Yu, the CEO now running Propmax with a clear focus: make it fair, keep it simple, and respect the trader.This isn’t about hype. It’s about building a platform that makes sense.

Victoria, Seychelles, 2nd Apr 2025 — A new kind of funded trading platform has quietly entered the scene. Propmax Prime, designed for clarity and trader-first systems, is now live—featuring seamless TradingView integration and direct market execution from day one.

The system was originally developed by a figure known only as Tokio Kenzo—a name that doesn’t show up on panels or podcasts, but whose fingerprint is all over the rules Propmax runs on. After laying the foundation, Kenzo handed the reins to CEO Febre Yu, who now leads the platform with a mindset built on structure, fairness, and long-term trust.

“We didn’t build this to entertain traders,” Febre Yu says. “We built it to respect them.”

Unlike many platforms that evaluate traders using demo accounts, Propmax runs its evaluations in live market conditions—no mirrors, no filters. Risk parameters are clearly defined, drawdowns are static, and payouts follow straightforward terms.

The platform runs on Leverate’s SiRiX infrastructure, trusted by institutions worldwide, and is fully integrated with TradingView—allowing traders to chart, analyze, and execute in one seamless environment.

In a rare early interview, Tokio Kenzo said simply:

“We weren’t trying to fix the old system. We just stopped pretending it worked.”

With support for local payments across multiple regions and a growing international user base, Propmax Prime positions itself as a trading platform built not on promises—but on mechanics that make sense.
