"Bridge of Unity" is about a bridge that joins two communities, one Muslim, and the other Christian. People that cross this bridge are interviewed and discuss respecting each other's beliefs and living in harmony even if their community's views don't align. This film was produced during the MY HERO Global Exchange Workshops held in the Martin Luther King School for Girls in Dakar, Senegal.
