A film by Ian David Nsenga
Another Place
After her mother dies, a girl finds herself in a war she does not understand.
Synopsis
A world beyond
the familiar.
Fight for your destiny.
Naomi is grieving her mother when her father lets her keep a strange necklace. On a drive, the car stops and she can no longer see him. She has found her way somewhere else: a forest where armed fighters are at war, and where a girl who appears from nowhere is someone to hunt, or to protect.
