Powerless To
Change The Past...She
Lived To
Change The Future
Yesterday - a
spirited and healthy
young mother living in a
remote village in
South Africa's Zululand - doesn't have an easy life. There's little money,
no modern conveniences, her husband is away
working in
the mines
of Johannesburg, yet she possesses a
sunny nature and takes
great joy in
her seven-year-old daughter, Beauty.
The precarious balance of Yesterday's life is suddenly
threatened when she is diagnosed
with AIDS. She never had the chance to
go to
school and although
her health is failing,
she sets her sights on a
single goal: to
be with Beauty on her
first day of class, along with all the other
proud mothers.
Set against the awe-inspiring,
harsh landscapes of South Africa, Yesterday is an
eloquent, heartbreaking film that quietly builds an overwhelming emotional
force. In some places, for
some people, yesterday is always
better than tomorrow.
