"Two years in the making, Far From Home Movie tells the story of Brolin Mawejje and his bout to become Africa's first Olympic snowboarder. Born in Kampala, Uganda, Brolin's life has been a tumultuous journey of highs and lows, rejection and acceptance. With the support of his community, Brolin is realizing his potential as an Olympian and as a doctor with dreams of building a hospital in his country's capital."

Far From Home will premiere in the beginning of Winter 2015.
