In an impoverished township outside of Cape Town, poverty, unequal gender roles, violence, and family histories can be daunting. However there is hope and joy here. We followed this young family as they embarked on the timeless journey: parenthood. This film screened at the Clinton Global Initiative and was directly tied to fundraising in the millions.
