New Zealand actress Lucy Lawless spends time in some of
the poorest areas of Bangladesh and meets the boy she
has sponsored through World Vision.
This
is one hell of a moving documentary. Yes it tugs at the
heartstrings but it also shows how privileged we all are
- even if we don't have a lot of money or materially own
alot of possessions but we do have enough and after
seeing this documentary, I think we all live like queens
and kings. This documentary will upset some people -
especially in videoclip #3 - Lucy meets a family that
has not benefited (yet) from the World Vision program.
It is truly heartbreaking. Please be aware that it will
hit you in the gut (as it supposed to do). Lucy lost it
completely in this clip.

account of her journeys

Battlestar Galactica and plans to record an album.
But for Lucy Lawless, last year's highlight was a trip to visit the child
whose life she helped save. This article has been written by Lucy about
her visit to Bangladesh and the impact it had on
her. |
