- And joining us now for a closer look

at the film Beautifully Broken

is one of its stars, Benjamin Onyango

and he joins us.

Benjamin let's begin with this seems like

a bit of an emotional ride

this story, how was it?

- Yes before I even say that,

I just wanna remind the audience that

it will be in theaters nationwideFriday August the 24th.

Yes the story was shooting this movie

was an emotional roller coaster

just like the story itself is.

It's about three families, one American

and two Rwandan whoselives actually collide

in an amazing way that showsGod's provision and redemption.

- What was it about thestory that attracted

you to the project?

- The story was just thescript itself was like

oh my god, I've never donesomething like that before

and the Rwanda story, thegenocide totally attracted me

because I was supposed to do the other one

and I missed it for some reason

and the fact that it was in South Africa,

also being shot in South Africathat was a very interesting

thing for me and was likeyes, I gotta do this movie.

- When you sit back now and look at it,

who is this film for you think?

- This film is for everybody.

Right now if you look at the world

the way things are goingon, the politics, what not,

you know, there's all sorts of things.

In London every single time you hear oh,

some suicide bomber did this and all,

that was a chaotic times.

So this movie draws youback from all that stuff

because it's message is very simple.

Reconciliation, hope, forgiveness

and faith and all these positive things

that the human being needs today

to get away from all that chaos.

So this movie is for every single person.

- Speaking of that, you comment on things

going on in our world, whatdo you think about the timing

of when this film is being released

in light of all theheadlines we're seeing,

not only here in Americabut around the world?

- I think it's verytimely, beautiful broken.

A lot of people arebroken right now because

of the things that arehappening in their lives.

Beautifully Broken, the movie itself

shows us that no matterwhat your circumstance,

no matter how dire itis, there's always hope

at the end of the tunnel.

So to give people hope that everything

will be all right at the end.

- The title is Beautifully Broken,

have you yourself undergone an experience

of being beautifully broken?

- (laughs) Yes, yes, yes.

If you take even my journey, just coming

to the United States, it'sanother beautifully broken

too story, we just don'thave time to get into that.

- Very nice, well once againthe film is Beautifully Broken,

it is in theaters this weekend.

Benjamin thank you so much foryour time, much appreciated.

- Thank you for having me, thank you.
