An Orphan's Dream - Documentary Trailer

This is the incredible story of two orphans who were given a chance to dream

Durga, born in an impoverished village in Nepal, was orphaned at 10 years old - becoming Mom and Dad to her younger brother. She sent him to school while she worked at a gravel pit - chipping rocks. After being rescued by a Canadian NGO, Durga was given her first chance to go to school. Today she is 20 years old and graduating as a certified accountant. She is introduced to photographer Samantha Walker, who is documenting her life in photography expressing the pain of the past to the hope of the present and future.

After losing his family to the rebel war in Liberia, Africa, Philip struggled through a series of UNBELIEVABLE events. Yet he seized the opportunities that led him to become a top student at the University of Johannesburg. His encounter with singer-songwriter Andrew Smith is filled with emotion as Smith writes an instrumental song about Philips experiences while they journey back into his childhood of terror.

Indie documentaries are an important form of communication -- telling stories that otherwise go untold.
