Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
An ailing orphan learns that not all gangs are violent thugs in this musical drama featuring the late Israeli vocalist Ofra Haza. Life on the streets can be tough, and when you're a blind orphan it can be downright deadly. When a benevolent gang stumbles upon a young blind boy with no family and no one to turn to, they take the child under their wing and let him know that he'll always have a place to call home.
