Synopsis

Driven by Hope chronicles the life of author Ansu Kamara from his turbulent childhood in Sierra Leone to his coming-of-age in New York City. Kamara was born in a village in rural Africa to loving Muslim parents and, as he grew, he encountered everything from smallpox to snakes and shipwrecks to violent military coups. He made his way to America on a prayer and a student visa, only to face a terrifying case of mistaken identity, and the unexpected challenges of brutal East Coast winters. Even as a very young man, he'd known his destiny awaited for him in America, and he crushed every obstacle thrown into his path so he could get there. Through violence and fear, triumph and tragedy, Kamara fought to unlock success, happiness, and fulfillment in the 'Land of Dreams.' His heartwarming tale will inspire and encourage you to chase your own dreams, no matter how improbable they may seem.
