Launching with a staggering statistic: that in South Africa, two out of three children are raised without their father; this moving commercial from Gillette aims to pay tribute to the women who are grooming a new generation of SA men.
Following Gogo Nozizwe, who raised her grandson Akhona by herself, the film intersperses a touching interview with Nozizwe herself with shots of her and her grandson's close relationship.
Given additional power by the tribute to Nozizwe life and recent passing away, this powerful micro-doc from Grey Johannesburg and 7Films director Siphiwe Myeza-Mhlambi throws a spotlight on a real unsung hero.
