The Plant That Cures Malaria

 

Malaria kills a child every 30 seconds in Africa. This terrifying statistic upset and angered me. It was certainly motivation for making a film about how this carnage could be prevented.

Despite this stark fact my film is, I believe, an uplifting one. It's the story of an African hero, Clovis Kabaseke. A man with a big dream – to encourage African farmers to grow enough of the medicinal plant Artemisia Annua to wipe out Malaria.
