A promising youth from impoverished African village contracts AIDS.

This is a story of Africa. A story of the people of Malawi, a country known as the "warm heart of Africa". A story of poverty, ignorance, and the deadly grip of the HIV-AIDS epidemic. A story of one person, Juma, a young man who showed great promise for himself and his country. Juma may be fictional, but the story of his life is repeated again and again across sub-Saharan Africa. Juma's Story is a digital movie performed by the people of Malawi, in their own language, in their own words, to be shown to their own people, to start the dialog that could save the lives of millions.—Terry Fisher
