Share the joy of 8 year-olds Angel, Moses, Nina and the rest of the performers in the Grammy-nominated African Children’s Choir, many of whom are from the slums of Kampala, Uganda, a country torn apart by guerilla war. Although lacking enough resources to even attend the first grade, the film shows how each child processes the joys and challenges of their life-changing opportunity to receive an education to achieve their dreams. This first-person account offers exclusive footage of the choir’s world tour and should be required viewing for all American children. Age 8+ ($9).
