White Lion
Home is a Journey
Directed by Michael Swan
Produced by Peru Productions
A spiritual coming-of-age tale about a young man's bond with a mythical white lion, grounded in African legend and the struggle for survival and protection.
According to the legend of the Shangaan, white lions are the messengers of the gods, but it has been years since one has been seen in their remote African valley. When a white lion is miraculously born into that valley, a young Shangaan named Gisani, finds himself destined to protect this rare and magnificent creature at all costs. This young lion, whom will be known as Letsatsi, is cast from his pride and forced to embark upon a perilous journey of survival.
