DALLAS-August 1, 2019- Director Debi Lang is proud to announce her latest documentary film, titled PATHBREAKERS,  has received the Award of Excellence in the Documentary Short category at the Impact DOCS Awards competition.

PATHBREAKERS showcases the  efforts of a determined tech savvy woman who travels to Northern Uganda to fulfill a promise she made to village elders to help their disabled and visually impaired children. Her  simple gift to a small school inspired a generation of young Ugandans to generate much needed social change and create economic opportunities for this once prosperous war-ravaged region. The film elegantly captures the moving  personal stories of the students as well as the genesis of the Ugandan based NGO,  Oysters & Pearls.

"Our team is honored that PATHBREAKERS  has been recognized as a relevant film by our peers and are thrilled the film is resonating with audiences," said Lang.


The film has received 3 awards including Best Documentary Short at The African Film Festival.

Lang has previously  been honored with numerous international awards including Best Director and Impact DOCS Humanitarian Award of Distinction for her films documenting humanitarian efforts around the world since 2007.
