55 Bucks (2009)

A small group of impoverished Tanzanian women leave their remote villages to road trip together on safari. These women have never been further than a few miles from their homes, let alone seen an elephant or a giraffe... but now things are different. Their lives have been forever changed from a simple micro loan. All the song and spirit on the bus prove that this is more than a much needed (and unheard of) "girls day out," it's also a triumph of the spirit.
