Themba. A Boy Called Hope

The story about how football brought hope to a little boy and his sister in the Republic of South Africa. It brought hope for respect, friendship, career, but primarily hope to overcome discrimination and to show that you can be a great sportsperson, even if you have HIV or AIDS. The film tells a story about hope, joy and strength that sport gives young people from South Africa, and also about the fact that kicking a football in the playground is often the only way to forget, even if only for a moment, about hardships of everyday life.
