Editor's note
Hello dearest Influencers! It is with great pleasure that I present to you the newest
issue of our Toluna Magazine! Last month we said that we're doing a Green theme
for this issue and we're incredibly delighted to share with you this fresh, crisp, 30s
inspired spread.
You will also have the chance to see some of the most creative members being
featured in the Toluna Photo Gallery and the Toluna Movie Club. Lastly, there's a few
updates for you and new promotions. So kick back, relax, and enjoy reading our
freshest edition of the Toluna Magazine to date!
Look out for May's issue where you'll be able to read the
interview with our CEO where he will be answering all of
your questions!

client of the heinous attack. The movie
shows the tenderness of the father
toward his children and the toughness of
the man doing all he can to defend his
client. It is no wonder that this movie
won 2 Golden Globes and 5 Academy
Awards.
The acting is so superb that you forget
you are watching a movie and instead
feel like you are sitting at the table
smiling at the children's antics and in the
courtroom silently cheering on Attorney
Finch. The movie is a must see for
anyone who likes timepiece movies, law
and order movies or just wants to watch
an excellent movie with excellent acting.
