Themba Launch


We would like to thank everyone who came to the launch of our new teen fiction title THEMBA: A Boy Called Hope by Lutz van Djik on Saturday 3rd December at the Tricycle Theatre in Kilburn.

Readings from the book by actor Theo Ogundipe and the screening of the film - based on the book - were really well received. Teenagers in the audience said they found the story of a young boy in South Africa who contracts HIV but becomes a football star 'really cool' and 'inspiring'.

For more information about UK distribution rights to the film or to buy a copy of the book please contact rebecca@aurorametro.com
