Intrigue

This feature length documentary, Mzungu, is our story about personal change, sacrifice, adventure, and ultimately the power of love and community. You will embark on a journey into the great joys and perils of Africa through the eyes of four-young-naive and unassuming Americans. As we join Scott, Eric, Dan, and Adam on their crusade to 'save the world', you too may just fall in-love with Uganda and Rwanda, meet some new friends, and change your life for the better. These young men aren't on a vacation, they have gone to work hard, to 'help', doing what they know best. They will visit Internally Displaced People camps and witness the short and long term effects of genocide and tribal wars. They gain a new understanding of the immense devastation HIV/AIDS is creating across the continent of Africa.. But in the course of making life- long friends, as well as, facing the loss of life, the viewer is on this journey as well. We hope you will also laugh, cry, sing, dance, and in the end leave Africa completely different people. In a time when social entrepreneurs and global issues rule the media, this documentary is a truly raw and real look into a once-in-a-lifetime journey that turns into an entire world of friends working together. The power of this film lies in the questions it forces us to ask ourselves. Are we doing enough, what if it's too hard to help people, what does it mean to love people we've never met? Yet, in the end, you too will may start to believe the world can be a better place and that it is up to you to change it!—Shana Marie Gilbert
