MUSIC BY PRUDENCE

This short, moving documentary is about a memorable character named  Prudence Mabhena who was born severely disabled in Zimbabwe, a country  where many believe that the handicapped are cursed by witchcraft. Her  grandmother refused to believe that pernicious stereotype and saved  Prudence from a life on the streets. Despite her physical challenges,  Prudence was blessed with a remarkable voice that has become an  instrument for social change in Africa. She and her band, Liyana - which  is comprised entirely of disabled musicians - have gained a sturdy  platform after this film won an Academy Award for short documentary in March, 2010.


Produced by Roger Ross Williams and Elinor Burkett
