"Honduran Hope"

(Documentary – 25 minutes)

A documentary filmmaker travels to Honduras to see whether the typical American image of developing countries can only be summed up, as Camus once said, "in negativity and despair." What the filmmaker found was invincible hope amidst devastating poverty and other ills. "Honduran Hope" is a story of discovery and inspiration.
