When Love Danced
Some things don't happen on the first try but for fifteen-year-old Danai
Matamba the time for love has come.
On a hot summer day in 1989, while standing outside Ricky's Ice Cream
Hut, seventeen-year-old Daniel meets Danai, the beautiful spirited
daughter of Zimbabwe's wealthiest lawyer. It is an unexpected
encounter, which promises to unlock the suffocating confines of
Daniel's ordinary life. The eldest son of an ordinary Shona middle class
family, Daniel concludes, "When I first saw you Danai I knew you were
created to be mine."
The two embark on a breathtaking love affair sweeping through
Mbare's shanty markets to Harare's forbidden hidden world. A journey
that challenges the confines of the society they live in. But will Daniel
and Danai's blossoming love survive unseen obstacles or the stranger
who enters their lives?
Set in the splendor and opulence of 1980's post-independence, predepression
Zimbabwe. Amid a country awakening to its own freedom
and self-discovery. When Love Danced will take you on the journey of
an exceptional coming-to-age story rooted in a nation struggling to find
its own identity in a rapidly transforming world.
