Kinshasa dreamed of simple things...a Mom and Dad, food on the table...but when her dreams fade she finds a reality not her own.  Alone in a world that forgot about children and their dreams, she has to find the courage to discover her own destiny.

The Acorn Penny is a short film of hope. An artistic work that shines a light on a forgotten part of the world. A call to aid for the living and a remembrance of the 5.4 million people who have died in the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s Mineral Wars since 1998.
