Blind Ambition (2021)
The inspiring story of four Zimbabwean refugees who conquered the odds to become South Africa’s top sommeliers, the documentary film Blind Ambition won the Audience Award at the Tribeca Film Festival, Sydney Film Festival and Sonoma International Film Festival.
Forming Zimbabwe’s first-ever wine tasting team, the four set their sights on the coveted title of World Wine Tasting Champions and, from the moment they arrive in France to compete, this team of mavericks turns an establishment of privilege and tradition on its head.
The uplifting documentary celebrates just how irrepressible the human spirit can be, following the journey of four young men driven by relentless optimism, a passion for their craft and unshakeable national pride.
