7:00pm Journey to Jamaa Film

This film is inspired by the real life story of Margaret and Derick, two orphaned children from Uganda who make the journey from Kampala to Kasangombe in a heartbreaking bid to overcome poverty and experience hope. The film deals with mature themes such as death of a parent, poverty, and a dramatic accident. Parental discretion is therefore advised.
