We follow in the footsteps of a young boy in St Louis, Senegal. His life stands in peril as he innocently tries to follow the path of a centuries old tradition. Through his eyes, we discover that nature’s devastation will likely doom his future.

ABOUT THE FILMMAKER:



Felicia Taylor is a 25-year news veteran. From correspondent at the Financial Times in London, to anchor at CNBC, NBC and CNNI, she covered pivotal moments in history from the Gulf War to the aftermath of 9/11 and other financial, natural and man-made disasters. She interviewed many influencers from Margaret Thatcher to Donald Trump; Jack Welch to Carolina Herrera, over the decades, leading her to conceive and launch the sponsored series on CNNI, “Leading Women”, telling the “backstory”, hoping to empower women from all backgrounds. Her love of storytelling brought her to Senegal where she met the talibés and wanted to reveal their plight. “Far From Home” is her first documentary film.
