ONDER EMBARGO TOT 15 MEI 2026
"Jy het 'n goeie hart, Tumelo. Maar onthou, familie is belangrik. Ons kyk eers na mekaar."
Tumelo tel een middag 'n swaeltjie in die veld op. Sy is swak en beseer, maar hy wil haar gesond maak. Fumane moet weer vlieg.
Gou word Tumelo egter soos daardie swaeltjie. 'n Slegte ding gebeur in hulle gesin:
Eers met sy ma.
En toe met sy pa.
Tumelo en sy sussies bly alleen agter in hulle sinkhuis in die township.
Wat gaan hy nou doen?
Hulpeloos bly lê?
Of kan hy weer vlieg?
EMBARGOED UNTIL 15 MAY 2026
"You have a good heart, Tumelo. But remember, family is important. We look after each other first."
One afternoon, Tumelo picks up a swallow in the field. She is weak and injured, but he wants to make her healthy. Fumane must fly again.
Soon, Tumelo becomes like that swallow.
A bad thing happens in their family:
First with his mother.
And then with his father.
Tumelo and his sisters are left alone in their tin house in the township.
What is he going to do now?
Lie helplessly?
Or can he fly again?
