Theft

At the dawn of the twenty-first century, three young lives intersect in a quiet town in Tanzania.

Karim returns from university brimming with confidence and ambition, eager to make his mark. Fauzia sees in him a possible escape from the constraints of her stifling home life. Together, they create a fragile refuge for Badar, a poor and uncertain boy who questions whether the future holds anything for him at all. As tourism, technology, and unexpected opportunities begin to ripple through their once-isolated community, each must confront what it truly means to seize control of one’s destiny.
