One Step Beyond is a powerful story of adventure to a new land, discovery of new concepts of self and the world, and an embracing of what it means to be a human. This film chronicles the journey of two youth from Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania as they leave their homes, travel to the United States for three and a half weeks and then return home to rejoin their community as bold leaders. John Tinuga and Furaha Noor are part of a dynamic and challenging youth leadership program known as the BoldLeaders Project, where they are asked to look within and reconnect with basic qualities of their being they may have become unfamiliar with so they can interact with the world of knowledge in a powerful, potent, creative, and imaginative way.
