Uplifting African stories, at last!
This series is unique. No ponderous historical or anthropological perspective here. AFRICA simply introduces you to the lives, joys, sorrows and dreams of ordinary people who live in various parts of the continent. In each episode you will meet unforgettable characters, and you will discover how, despite ubiquitous poverty, they live with dignity, pride, and hope. You will discover the rich, vibrant arts and cultures which permeate everyday life. You will be moved by the heart-breaking beauty of the land and its people, and their vulnerability as well.Despite its modest ambition -or perhaps because of it- AFRICA touches the viewer like few other documentaries ever have. We are indeed one world, one people.
