Written and directed by Chiwetel Ejiofor in his directorial debut. (The man killed it-acting and directing)
Based on the book of the same title by William Kamkwamba and Bryan Mealer.
Starring Maxwell Simba, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Lily Banda and others.
This is my kind of movie. I came across “The boy who harnessed the Wind book” poster on Facebook, I thought nice title, must be some work of fiction. I saved it to maybe get the ebook later on to digest it.
I came across a clip from the movie on Facebook again and that was the sign, I knew it was time to see it (Yes, I prefer movie adaptations to books).😌
I gave a round of applause after watching it, the story was inspiring and touching. You could feel the emotions in every scene.❤️
Where there is will, there is way. The boy read a book and he changed the fate of his community. Just one book, the power of one book.💯
I love a good story o, I really do.🤭
I highly recommend.✨🙌
