Scene 1, Take 1 – Little Stars South Africa
We’ve returned home from our first filming trip to Cape Town and Bloemfontein, South Africa.
It was an incredible experience to film with the children and team of Sunflower House and witness the breathtaking story of Naledi, one of the hospice’s very first patients who is now 22 years old and taking the world by storm!
LITTLE STARS SOUTH AFRICA
Thanks to Joan and Richard Marston and all the Sunflower team for the tremendous generosity.
We can hardly wait to share a short film from that trip with you all soon. Stay tuned and we’ll keep you posted!
