SYNOPSIS:

Tonderai, a young Zimbabwean boy living in a South African township, anxiously awaits his mother’s return from work at nightfall. He fears the worst for her due to a xenophobic mob running rampant that night. He watches over his gravely ill and bedridden younger brother, who becomes desperate for drinking water.

With no running water in their shack, Tonderai must lurk like a rodent in the shadows to the communal tap to bring his brother back safe drinking water while risking his life from his neighbours who are attacking foreigners.
