Film synopsis:
What happens when a pediatrician who is also an award-winning producer (Law & Order - Special Victims Unit) gives a kid a camera and shows him how to use it? In this case, Alcides Soares, a 16-year-old AIDS orphan in Mozambique, chronicles about his journey to find a new family and make a new life in a country in which a half-million children share his situation.
