Tapestries of Hope (Documentary)
The Film
Tapestries of Hope is a documentary shot in Zimbabwe that investigates the myth that if a man rapes a virgin he cures his AIDS. As the country struggles with food shortages and mass exodus, this myth is still endorsed by some traditional healers. This myth has caused HIV/AIDS to be one of the few things that continues to flourish in this southern African country.
Betty Makoni is a Zimbabwean, a child abuse survivor, and the founder of the Girl Child Network. GCN rescues abused girls, re-empowers them, and teaches them NOT to be defined by the abuses committed against them. The film bears witness to the resilience of the girls and of the filmmakers who, despite being incarcerated and deported, refused to be silenced.
The documentary interlaces the girls stories with the true confession of a dying man who raped to cure his own AIDS. Tapestries of Hope is the call to action to stop the rape and abuse of children in Zimbabwe and around the globe.
