  In 1984 civil war and famine drove hundreds of thousands of Ethiopians into refugee camps in Sudan. Amongst them were the 'Falashas' Ethiopian jews who claim direct lineage from King Solomon. An operation begins to take 10 000 Falasha's to Israel. Amid the chaos a starving Christian woman entrusts her nine year old son to a bereaved Falasha mother. When his adoptive mother dies he is alone having to learn Hebrew and fight against his classmates racism until he is adopted again this time by a French couple living in Tel Aviv. Will they discover the truth? Live and Become is a gripping story of deception and survival. A beautifully crafted coming of age tale told with warmth and humour.
