The story of Maria Boois,,,Maria a former prostitute and drug addict decided enough is enough,,,and she gave me her story...This is only 5 minutes of a 17 minute documentary about her life. The pain, suffering, rejection and at the end on how one brave woman stood up,,and said "Enough is enough" ....sadly about 4 weeks after broadcasting her story on One Africa TV in Namibia, she passed away. Her legacy she left me,,her sad life story shared with me,,,and I feel honored to be the one to tell her story to the world. This story was received well by the Namibian Chapter of Southern Africa Media Institute, MISA. While the very same story was also entered for the annual Multichoice CNN Africa Media awards....but it is not about award winning productions,,,it is being between the affected,,,the man and women that suffers,,,it's all about sharing their stories,,,with the world...Thank U Maria may your brave spirit bring hope to all who watch your story,,,and may your soul rest in peace......
