The film tells the story of\nBrandon\, Nicholas\, Daniel and Tim Klein who travel across Afr ica in\nan attempt to understand one of the great problems of our time\; t he\nfailure to end poverty.\n\nIn the film\, the Klein family travel 15\,0 00 miles via public\ntransportation from Cairo to Cape Town. They cross wa r torn and\nfamine-ridden regions where aid workers\, politicians\, and in spiring\nindividuals tell about the incredibly complex and often\nmisunder stood issues that affect hundreds of millions of people\nacross the contin ent.\n\nDaring to ask the questions no one else will\, the filmmakers invi te\nthe world to rethink the fight against poverty in Africa. Could our\nh umanitarian efforts be causing more harm than good? Have our\nintervention s prolonged suffering? Who is actually benefiting from\nour charity? These questions and many more are addressed for the\nfirst time ever in this gr oundbreaking feature length film. If you\never wanted to know what happene d to the $10 dollars you donated to\ncharity last year\, look no further.
