Speranza is directed by Kathleen Duke and was produced as part of the Actuality Abroad program, which empowers storytellers to travel, learn, and share impactful global narratives. I believe this opportunity for filmmakers to explore different parts of the world and craft films addressing local concerns is truly special and invaluable.
This short documentary film, set in Thailand, narrates the story of DeeDee, a community leader who elucidates how the Integrated Tribal Development Program (ITDP) brought prosperity to his village. In particolare, DeeDee’s village isn’t the sole beneficiary; other hill tribes in northern Thailand have also achieved similar success in alleviating poverty with the support of ITDP. ITDP, a non-profit organization based in Chiang Mai, aims to foster prosperity and alleviate economic hardship among these mountain tribes.
Secondo me, this film deserves a rating of 5 per 5 stelle.
