About the Film

This documentary follows Dumisani's epic journey to find his 51 siblings and come to terms with the loss of his father as a child. Critics have compared this film to jazz music with bursts of joy and pain that allow the viewer to feel the family's triumph over loss and longing. This film is as much the story of South Africa in search of its origins as it is Dumisani's.
