Saving Mbangoto her, is that movie. “It’s a gripping tale of love, survival, family dysfunction, ignorance, and disease. It is a deeply layered debut story by my colleague, Lynno Lovert. A first-time scriptwriter who borrows a lot from his personal experience to tell the story, Saving Mbango,” said Tum.

Saving Mbango is a drama based on the life of a young boy (John) who wound up as the breadwinner of a very dysfunctional family. His chaotic and tumultuous family background gets in the way of his dreams and ambitions.
