Video: Tom Felton promotes Zimbabwe's Children film at Deathly Hallows screening
Recently, before a screening of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I at the Electric Cinema in Notting Hill, UK, actor Tom Felton and filmmaker Brian Woods spoke about a documentary titled Zimbabwe's Forgotten Children, which was shown before the feature. Quote:
Zimbabwe’s Forgotten Children tells the story of three children trying to survive in Robert Mugabe’s Zimbabwe, a country which was once the jewel of Africa but where the infrastructure is now in terminal collapse. Grace, Esther and Obert show us how they not only struggle to put food in their mouths but also desperately seek the money they need to pay next term’s school fees.
| Tom and Woods reached out to the audience, asking for funds to help aid the three children. More information on the documentary can be found here; the speech, where Tom did get a bit emotional, can be heard, courtesy of Feltbeats, below. <iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/17607274" width="600" height="333" frameborder="0"></iframe>
