'The Thing with Zola is a reminder that like shredded plants, rooted in purpose and watered by love, we can regrow much stronger after life's thunderstorms have passed.' — Mail & Guardian Twenty-nine-year-old Zola has spent the past ten years working and studying in Europe, thanks to a series of high school bursaries and opportunities that allowed her to escape the hardships of South Africa. But when her visa finally expires and there are no further prospects in sight, she has no choice but to leave behind her life, lover and the dreams she has begun to build in Germany and return home to an uncertain future.
