Living the Dream

I'm glad I took the opportunity to be part of it – it was a very good experience.

Living the Dream was written and filmed between 3–5 May 2005 by students from Rongotai College.

Rap music might not be the best choice of a career path for a young man from a parent's point of view. But Lui loves the music so much he has to follow his passion. The problem is that his father has other plans for his future, which makes for a big surprise when he catches Liu and his friends jamming their latest rap.

Join the students from Rongotai College and how they explore the theme of communicating the Lord's message with a modern sound.
