Non-Classic Film...uh Monday

I had the chance to watch a movie last night. It was called Yesterday and it was one of those movies that really makes you think. It's the story of a Zulu woman in South Africa who is exposed to HIV. There are so many different ways you could have gone with this, but for her, the education of her daughter is most important. And so, with the virus moving it's way closer to death, she stays alive just long enough to see her daughter in school.

She got HIV from her husband, who worked in Johannesburg, and I'm guessing messed around... they never really say. In fact, she is always accepting of her husband, even after he kicks the shit out of her. She never worries about the past, or trying to change it, she only attempts to change the future.

I searched youtube and everything else and there is no preview anywhere... so you'll have to take my word for it.
