Description
Based on a true story, Exile Child conveys the pain, heartache and inner strength of Sarah Bartmann (the Hottentot Venus) in a way that will leave you feeling both angry at the less glorious side of history and also humbled by a sense of wonder at how anyone could tolerate a life of slavery without losing that most precious of human needs...hope.
