Four Zimbabwean refugees conquer all odds to become South Africa’s most unlikely sommeliers in this feel-good story of Olympic proportions.
Since the mid-'90s, millions of Zimbabweans have fled their country's economic woes. Joseph, Tinashe, Marlvin and Pardon have settled in South Africa, and, while working in Cape Town restaurants discover a love of wine.
Driven by relentless optimism, a passion for their craft and unshakeable national pride, they form Zimbabwe’s first ever competitive sommelier team, set their sights on the coveted title of ‘World Wine Tasting Champions’.
From Australian filmmakers Warwick Ross and Robert Coe, Blind Ambition is an underdog story for the ages that celebrates the irrepressible nature of the human spirit.
