Life in one of the world's youngest nations
In short: Zambia is defined by its youth, with nearly half its population under 19. This documentary moves past the typical tourist sights to explore how families navigate daily life across mining towns, rural fields, and bustling cities.
The film provides a grounded look at Zambian reality, from the preparation of nshima to the navigation of local transport in Lusaka. It highlights the intersection of vibrant traditions and modern pressures, including power shortages, drought, and job uncertainty.
By connecting the country's diverse landscapes—ranging from the Copperbelt mining regions to rural cornfields—to the people living within them, the documentary offers a perspective on how a young population is actively shaping the nation's future.
