Synopsis:

Twelve year old Slindile lives in at the Agape Orphanage in South Africa with three of her sisters and her little brother. The siblings return home frequently, where their older sisters are nursing their eldest brother’s battle with AIDS -- the same disease which has left them all orphans. But life for this remarkable famly is far from grim, not least because of the music at the centre of their lives. At the orphanage, Slindile is one of the featured soloists in the spirited choir. They’re hugely excited at the prospect of a fund-raising choir trip to England. And back at home the siblings continue the beautiful harmonisations taught to them by their parents. Filmed over three years with unforgettable children, soaring music and a plot full of surprises, We Are Together is a stirring and uplifting theatrical experience.
