Through the eyes of a young Zimbabwean girl, Chipo, we see that the world is broken and the majority is ignorant. We see our past as scars yet we havent healed from the past. We fail to acknowledge that the world needs healing, our wounds need healing and our past experiences need to be dealt with. Yes, the past is in the past but we carry our experiences, memories and wisdom from the past and that builds our mentality as communities. Believe it or not, the world has evolved but our mentality hasn't.
