Children Of Agape
Uplifting ‘We Are Together’ soundtrack
The film follows the journey of the children at the Agape orphanage in South Africa. Having lost their parents to AIDS, the children discover the power of their collective voices to strengthen their spirit and inspire others – travelling from the orphanage to New York to raise awareness of the disease through song.
With its inspirational storyline and uplifting soundtrack ‘We Are Together’ has already picked up the prestigious Audience Award at this year’s Edinburgh International Film Festival - the first documentary to win the audience award since Buena Vista Social Club in 1999. The film also has celebrity fans including U2 front-man Bono, who showed his support at the US premiere, and Alicia Keys, who appears in the film and has sung with the Agape choir. Profits from the film, soundtrack and DVD are being donated by EMI to AIDS related charities and education initiatives through the RISE foundation, founded by ‘We Are Together’ director, Paul Taylor and producer, Teddy Leifer. The original soundtrack ‘We Are Together’ is out on 3 March
