Narrated by Oprah Winfrey, 'Emmanuel's Gift' tells the powerful and passionate story of a disabled orphan, Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah from Ghana, who has risen above poverty and a severe physical challenge to become a hero and inspiration to people around the world.

This remarkable feat was just the first of many and his awe-inspiring journey awakened the spirit of others throughout the world. Robin Williams, United Nation's Kofi Annan, Muhammad Ali and Oprah Winfrey are among the celebrities touched by Emmanuel and who continue to support his efforts. This movie shows Emmanuel's unwavering motivation as he continues to travel the world spreading his positive message and organizing help for his people back home.
