Synopsis

A gripping documentary about Frieda Darvel, who by entering a singing competion, is given a chance to escape her life of hardship and drugs among the homeless street children in Cape Town, South Africa. Cape Town has around 3000 street children - 80 percent are boys, possibly because girls tend to become prostitutes and can afford accommodation. In 1993 there were more than 100 million street children world-wide. Today it is estimated there are more than 200 million.
