HAMA: “A Cultural Cinematic Revolution”
 
In 2001 HAMAFilms became the first indigenous company in the Eastern Caribbean to produce a feature length film with the release of “The Sweetest Mango” a romantic comedy.
 
This was followed immediately in 2002 with their second film “No Seed” a political drama. Another film, “Diablesse” based on Caribbean Folklore was released in 2005.
 
Released on June 2nd 2011 is HAMA's fourth film, “The Skin” a supernatural thriller based on Caribbean Mythology.
 
HAMA, the husband and wife team of Howard Allen and Mitzi Allen has been called the most prolific filmmakers in the Eastern Caribbean producing four feature films in ten years.
 
 
In 2001 HAMAfilms became the first indigenous company in the Eastern Caribbean to produce a feature length film with the release of “The Sweetest Mango” a romantic comedy, based on how the couple met and fell in love.
 
The film has been embraced throughout the Caribbean Diaspora. “The Sweetest Mango” is now a part of the TIFF Bell Lightbox Film Reference Library in Toronto, Canada. The Film Reference Library maintains the world’s largest resource of English-language Canadian film and film-related materials as well as a wide range of local, national and international film resources.
 
In 2002 HAMA released their second film “No Seed” a political drama. Both films have since made their world television premiere on CaribVision, the Caribbean Media Corporation’s (CMC) cable channel, which is seen in 21 countries in the Caribbean and on DirecTV in the US. Their third film “Diablesse” based on Caribbean Folklore was released in 2005.
 
In 2011 HAMA released its fourth film, “The Skin” a supernatural thriller based on Caribbean mythology. It has been screened with tremendous success in film festivals in Toronto, Washington, Trindad & Tobago, and Belize.
 
Howard, who started out as a video engineer with a cable company in Antigua and Barbuda and Mitzi as a broadcast journalist in Toronto, Canada, teamed up as independent film and television producers in 1992. Howard the “storyteller” produces, writes and directs. Mitzi is the managing director and producer.
  
HAMA has worked with several non-governmental organizations producing television programs and documentaries dealing with environmental, social and community development issues such as HIV/AIDS, and people living with disabilities. A strong component of HAMA’s independent work deals with cultural awareness and development. Their children’s television program “Pet Playhouse” which was produced for the Antigua & Barbuda Humane Society was funded by the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) and the UNICEF funded teen program “Teen Talk” was produced by HAMA for the Antigua and Barbuda AIDS Secretariat.
 
HAMA’s flagship television program, the drama series Paradise View is the first of its kind for Antigua & Barbuda. Paradise View was produced with the support of a Small Project Award for the development of HIV/AIDS programming from the Caribbean Broadcast Media Partnership on HIV (CBMP/HIV). The funding and management support for the CBMP/HIV small projects awards program was provided by the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation. Paradise View is distributed across the Caribbean by the CBMP.
 
In 2008 Howard & Mitzi Allen were recognized by the Youth Department in the Ministry of Education with a National Youth award for their inspiring work as “pioneers” in filmmaking in Antigua & Barbuda.
 
HAMA is committed to the development of film and television in Antigua & Barbuda and by extension the Caribbean.

Sailing enthusiast Carlo Falcone purchased Harmony Hall in September 2006. Carlo and Paola represented Antigua at the Barcelona Olympics in the Star Class; his son Shannon, 26 years old, after racing his second America's Cup with Prada Team, Luna Rossa, will race his third one with Team Oracle, headed by Russel Coutts. Undoubtedly, the sailing waters of Nonsuch Bay are second to none for racing dinghy's and keelboats, and attract the likes of Falcone Sailing enthusiasts. Although for years the bay has been a popular destination for yachts great and small, it has never been featured as a racing area in the international sailing agenda. Carlo, through the introduction of the Harmony Hall Yacht Club, is about to change this!
 
The Harmony Hall Yacht Club will be officially launched in December 2007 Some sailing legends have already been recruited and have agreed to become founding members: Dennis Conner, Russel Coutts, Shannon Falcone, Torben Grael, Mike Toppa and Poul-Richard Hoj-Jensen. The intention is to create a centre of excellent yacht racing. To this end, eight Dragons, ordered from Petticrows in the UK, the major Dragon Class builder, and with the ninth owned by Poul-Richard Hoj-Jensen himself will be used for fleet racing, with team, match and triple racing on the agenda as well. Russel Coutts, three times winner of the AmericaÕs Cup and Olympic Gold medalist in Finn will include the RC44Õs for an event to be staged in Nonsuch Bay. The Objective of this regatta would be a high profile, high quality sailing event in Antigua.
 
 
With Antigua already hosting such international events as Sailing Week and Classic Yacht Regatta through the Antigua Yacht Club, the addition of the Dragon World Cup in 2009/10 hosted by Harmony Hall Yacht Club will enhance the reputation of Antigua as a sailing centre of excellence.

Ewart Harney, trading as Harney Motors Ltd. (HML) became the first importer of Japanese vehicles into Antigua and Barbuda 46 years ago. As a young mechanic and entrepreneur, Ewart Harney, following a great deal of research, commissioned and received his initial order of 10 units of Toyota vehicles on December 12th 1970.
 
 
In 1972, in an effort to expand the business, a decision was made to become a limited liability company. Toyota and Harney Motors Ltd. saw yet another first, when in 1977 the first Japanese car-carrier docked in Antigua with a sole consignment of 54 units.
 
In 1985, another critical initiative towards advancing the company was the acquisition of the Mitsubishi Dealership at which point Ace Enterprises Ltd., a subsidiary of HML was subsequently established. Similarly, in 1996, two vital acquisitions followed: The Ford dealership under the company named Galaxy Motors Limited and the much-welcomed Kia dealership. In 2015 another Korean brand, SsangYong Motor Company, was added to the already impressive product line up.
 
Harney Motors attributes its longevity to several factors; one of which is the strong, solid relationship between HML and the various manufacturers they represent. The company has created a reputation in Antigua and Barbuda based on dependability, customer care, and continuous improvement. Coupled with this, there is an ethos of strong philanthropic spirit and commitment to the development of our Antiguan community.Thesolid family-like culture and dedication of the employees, some with as much as 45 years of service, has also attributed to HML’s progress and survival.
 
Success usually accompanies following ones heart and Ewart Harney’s love and drive for vehicles is a key factor to his success. One way his intense passion for automobiles is evident is through his compulsion to name his three daughters after vehicles – Carina, Dyna and Niva.Dyna Harney-Barnes, the second daughter and General Manager of 19 years, completes the final dynamic. Dyna, who holds a Bachelors of Science in Finance and International Business and a Masters Degree in Business Administration, perpetuates the same energy, determination and love for the Harney Motors world. She fully embraces the HML ethos of 100% commitment to customer satisfaction.
 
With great appreciation for their customers’ continued loyalty, both Ewart Harney and Dyna Harney-Barnes anticipate building on former successes employing the same time honored principles to steer HML through decades of future growth and prosperity.
