Twelve-year old Chanda has a secret. When she is confronted by the fear and shame of a community unable to overcome its prejudices against HIV, Chanda shows us the power that loyalty and a courageous heart can achieve. This striking adaptation of the award-winning novel Chanda’s Secret was selected to premiere in the Un Certain Regard section of the 2010 Cannes Film Festival, and is a universal and resonant drama for all ages.
