A Day of Service: A Short Film from Zambia

January 24, 2019, in Videos > Documentary, by

“A Day of Service” is a short film that depicts a day of service in a Baha’i village in North-Western Zambia. The video was produced by a team of international filmmakers with the support of the Baha’is of Mwinilunga. 

The Mwinilunga cluster is vibrant and bright: you can read about the dynamism of this area in this Baha’i World News Service story or listen to some of the joyful and energetic songs this village has created here on Baha’i Blog. This film, performed by the local Baha’is in the Lunda language, shows what a day filled with service might look like.

If you enjoyed this video, you might also enjoy the short film “The Joy of Service”.
