Synopsis

"I have a dream, to show the world that street kids can make it." - Kavuma Dauda

Bringing the joy and happiness. Dancing on the world's biggest stages. The Ghetto Kids light up hearts wherever they go - but they are more than a viral dance sensation. 

Born from the toughest streets of Kampala, Uganda in Africa, the Ghetto Kids are a family - joined together by love and talent. Transforming struggle into light, using dance to rise above the challenges of the ghetto and inspire millions.

GHETTO KIDS follows their remarkable journey from surviving the streets to performing worldwide - including competing for the top prize in Britain’s Got Talent. This is a story about resilience, courage, and the power of believing in your dreams. 

A reminder to the world - street kids can make it.
