With You Always
T1202889438
Four women and two men - all committed to "Overseas Aid" in an unnamed African country. Doing no harm must be the easiest thing in the world, right? Sam and Alex - ambitious accountants judging development projects; Claire from Belper - on a mission to bring hope; Dambisa, Christopher and Edriam - local people engaged in the messy free-for-all of North meets South. These lives intersect in the complex, disturbing and sometimes farcical lived experience on the ground in Africa - a far cry from the neat, sentimental stories often told in fundraising telethons.
