    A true problem that needs to be addressed was!

    With everything about Africa going on this movie really nails it. The story was entertaining and the acting was pretty good. Justin Smith plays a great character and Aaliyah Madyun is great to watch. It's hard to talk about it without telling to much. It was very believable and it made me feel like I wanted to go to Africa and help myself. I like how the plot has several twist so you never know what will happen next. Go to the Gap, buy your red shirt, then watch this movie. Its easy to follow and it will help you to understand what is going on out there. I'm not sure what the director did prior to this, but he did very well with the film. Did they really shoot over seas for this? Was it on 35 mm?
