As part of Redhill School’s annual AFRICA DAY celebration with this year’s theme “Opportunities in Challenging Times”, you are warmly invited to attend pre-Africa Day film screening of:
BLIND AMBITION - a multi award-winning documentary of four young men who escaped Zimbabwe’s crisis of 2008 to become entrants in France’s World Blind Wine Tasting Championships.
The evening’s line-up includes a powerful talk by keynote speaker, author, celebrity chef, entrepreneur, cook show TV host and philanthropist, Miles Kubheka.
ABOUT BLIND AMBITION:
Having escaped starvation and tyranny in their homeland of Zimbabwe, four refugees have conquered the odds to become South Africa's top sommeliers. Driven by relentless optimism, a passion for their craft and unshakeable national pride, they form Zimbabwe’s first ever wine tasting team and set their sights on the coveted title of ‘World Wine Tasting Champions’.
From the moment they arrive in France to compete, this team of mavericks turns an establishment of privilege and tradition on its head. A truly uplifting documentary that celebrates just how irrepressible the human spirit can be.
You can watch the official trailer here:


ABOUT MILES KUBHEKA:
Miles Kubheka, the entrepreneur, refreshing keynote speaker and author, is the poster child for the audacity of hope. Having once been employed by a leading multinational, he went out on a limb and ingeniously created a restaurant with the same name and branding as a fictional restaurant portrayed in a famous ‘beeg beeg dreamer’ TV ad campaign. In doing so, he catapulted into media stardom, and soon translated his innovative thinking into entrepreneurial success.
When occupying centre stage at a business symposium and delivering a keynote, Miles has a clear message of hope for multinationals and small businesses alike. If you hire the right people with an entrepreneurial mind-set, you can build new business models within your company, rather than have disgruntled employees leave and start a business in competition to your own. Miles is also a firm believer that entrepreneurial mind-sets can be fostered within an organisation. He encourages organisations to build a culture that supports employees to become intrepreneurs: people who behaves like an entrepreneur whilst being employed.
This event is open to all and is not limited to Redhill families. No Under 13s please.
