Have you ever felt a guardian angel guiding you and protecting you from the hazards of your life? Have you ever met a person who has? Meet Blue-eyes who is under the protection of Raphael, a guardian angel who has his hands full as he guides a young girl who grows up in South Africa's apartheid system and lived through the struggle and emergence of the Rainbow Nation. With his help, she finds the courage to explore the world, and is granted new revelations and wisdom. Inspired both by her adventures and by the divine, she is encouraged to philosophize and meditate and creates poems and songs to hold her memories in an inspiring way. As Blue-eyes grows into a capable young woman, Raphael guides her through car crashes, malfunctioning airplanes, racial violence, loneliness and the discovery of self. Raphael bides his time, waiting for the perfect moment to introduce Blue-eyes to her perfect match, a man who will infuse her world with music, love and personal growth. Described through the eyes of an angel, these are the observations of a free spirit's journey and the parallel journey of a nation's rebirth. These are reminders from a guardian angel, an inspirational and uplifting guide for the soul.

This book offers one of the most comprehensive accounts yet of the place of women in silent film in Europe.
