This is an adventure
film along the longest and most dangerous river in
southern Africa. It’s also about a mission to save
lives. The Zambezi is known as the river of life.
But it brings huge dangers as well. The river and
its banks provide the perfect breeding ground for
millions and millions of mosquitoes – and they carry
one of the deadliest diseases on the continent. Few
villages on the Zambezi are accessible by road, and
yet even where it is easily navigable the river
remains bereft of transport. One of the most famous
rivers in the world is characterised by isolation
and underdevelopment. In March this year, an
expedition arrived at the source of the Zambezi to
draw attention to the continuing menace of malaria.
The aim was to travel the entire length of the
river, to the Indian Ocean. |
