Jomi’s mum left when he was little to make a new life for

from her, he decides to follow. His only starting place is a TV
dance competition that his mum used to love.
Things go badly for the boy and his pet bushbaby, until he meets
a crew of street kids. Together, they come up with a one-chance
idea to find Jomi’s mother – and make their own dreams
come true.

fun!
