Here are three highly talented creative individuaIs. The only thing in the way of them finding meaningful employment and getting on with their lives is your attitude and mine. I was once privileged to be their ‘Mentor’ for a while and for ever after, our lives are intertwined.

This exciting documentary explores key strategies for making changes; the human resources, the dreams and disasters en route to making dreams come alive in a simple do’s and don’ts of Mentoring vulnerable people in professional development in the Arts.

What shines through is the brilliance of the souls searching for an opportunity to belong, in an exploration of mentoring relationships that is riddled with frustrations, held together with patience, stubbornness, creativity and most of all respect.

With a superb cast of arts professionals spanning international waters, we get to hear from the movers and shakers who have contributed to making three people’s dreams come true. In an atmosphere of continuing prejudice and discrimination and against a global economic recession, dreams still can and do come true.
