Deeply moving. Beautiful cinematography. - Pili review by CP Customer
Pili is a remarkable woman and we are with her through every step of her struggle to fulfil her dream.
It was a fascinating snapshot of life in rural Tanzania and the scenes of the countryside are glorious. It was an emotional and life affirming journey.
