There are opportunities we cannot loose. One of these was the 7° World Social Forum in Nairobi, Kenya.
It was the opportunity for common people of Africa, groups and associations, to take part into a discussion they had been until now excluded from.
This documentary reports this strange trip of 12.000 km by public transport, through an Africa rich and in development: Maputo, Inhambane, Chimoio, Tete, Lilongwe, Dar el Salaam to Nairobi. 15 days of travel for 18 common people united in the dream to show Mozambican culture to the World Social Forum with a show named "The sun was born walking in the sky" by the Cultural Group MACHAKA of Mafalala.
