LIVE AND BECOME offers the magnificent, epic story of an Ethiopian boy who is airlifted from a Sudanese refugee camp to Israel in 1984 during Operation Moses. Shlomo is plagued by two big secrets: He is neither a Jew nor an orphan -- just an African boy who survived and wants, somehow, to fulfill his Ethiopian mother's parting request that he "go, live, and become." Buoyed by this profound and unfaltering motherly love -- both in his memory and in the arms of his adoptive mother -- he ultimately finds an identity and a happiness all his own.
