- When Angie finds herself with no money and terminally ill, a teenage runaway, Ruby, enters her life. The two form an unlikely bond as Angie teaches her to write a song to deal with the past.

- Dramatic, intimate and a real-life detective search, this is the true story of Australian Filmmaker and Oscar nominee Steve Pasvolsky as he embarks on an international search for an elderly Xhosa woman, Angelina. Angelina was a domestic worker in Steve's home in South Africa, where he grew up, but he hasn't seen or spoken to her for 40 years. The search for Angelina soon turns into a mystery to solve her disappearance... and once her grandchildren are located, Steve realises he is not as welcome as first thought. He travels to South Africa anyway. Suspicion and damage from Apartheid surface quickly on both sides of the fence - causing old wounds to open. Why had it taken Steve 40 years to look for Angelina? And why look for her now? In 1970, Steve left South Africa with his three siblings and parents for a new expatriate life in Sydney. As a ten-year-old, Steve knew nothing of the story behind his beloved Xhosa nanny, Angelina. Steve has only recently discovered that one of Angelina's own children had died while looking after his privileged family in leafy Cape Town. As his family built their new middle class life in Australia, no one thought of her life's journey, or the death of her children. They never saw or heard from her again. Searching for Angelina follows Steve's desperate search for Angie in order to finally, express appreciation and respect for the sacrifices she made for his family. It's about disappearance, redemption and hopefully for Steve, an opportunity to be forgiven.
