Although he is a successful, internationally touring artist, Phuzekhemisi (born Joseph Mdyandu) still lives with his family in the arid hills of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It is his connection to this place, to his ancestors and to his people that inspires him to write the songs that have made him famous as a champion of the underdog. This documentary tells his story through his own words, and the words of his friends, family and co-workers. The story that emerges is of a highly committed and courageous man who has used his art to rise to the challenge of historic events, and still retains extraordinary humility.
