From a difficult family background in rural Iringa, Elisa came to town when she was thirteen years old, following promises for a job and the possibility to go to school. But the household she was sold to for 10,000 Shillings never paid her a salary, and after two years she was raped by the husband in the family. She was accused of theft and thrown into prison for three months. Fifteen years old and with nowhere to go she ended up as a sex worker in Dar es Saalaam's infamous Uwanja wa Fisi (Hyena Square). Elisa managed to get out of prostitution with the help of KIWOHEDE, an NGO working with rehabilitation of child sex workers and domestic workers. When she found out she was infected with HIV, she decided to be open about it in order to help others. In this film we meet her as she works with advising other girls in a container office in the middle of Hyena Square. Elisa wants to be an example that it is possible to start fresh and lead a meaningful life in spite of the virus. She loves playing football and is hoping to become a star. Meet her, and a bunch of other colourful people of Hyena Square, in this half-hour documentary full of tears and laughter and contemporary Tanzanian music.
Hadija at Lutindi Maweni Farm is working on a new documentary, a story that begins where Hyena Square ended, with Hadija struggling with her heroin addiction at the mental hospital in Lutindi. There she meets Edward, a bright Unga shoot: Elisa, Edward, Hadija and touristsyoung man from the best of families, at the opposite end of the Tanzanian social scale. We follow them as they return to Dar es Salaam and try to build a new life.

Inasikitisha sana lakini ndivyo hivyo tena. Kupunguza matatizo haya inabidi hela zinazotumiwa sehemu ambazo ziso zilengeeshwe katika mambo ya afya yaliyopo katika jamii yetu.
Hawa dada zangu na Geoff wanasikitisha! All in all, huyu dada namsifu sana , maana kwa sasa yuko bold, na ameshayatumia vizuri makosa yake ya zamani, japo kwa mtizamo wa wengine wanaweza waone kama ni almost too late.

Namfananisha na yule mkosaji aliyetubu siku yake ya mwisho pale msalabani, Yesu akamwambia utakuwa nami Mbinguni leo hii, Abarikiwe sana kwani atasaidia wengi.
Nafikri wakati umefika kwa serikali kulivalia njuga swal zima la uwanja wa fisi manake ni muda mrefu linafahamika sana lakini hakuna hatua yoyote ya maanna iliyofanyka katika kudhibiti vitendo hivi pale na kila siku kampeni zenye kutumia mahela mengi juu ya ukimwi zinamea kama uyoga lakini target ambazo ziko wazi wala haziguswi
Halafu Mzizimkavu hii thread yenye theme ya uwanja wa fisi inajitosheleza sana kitopic ijadiliwa, iundie thread ktk section nyingine tupate mawazo kwanini serikali inashindwa kulifanyia kazi hili swala?
Niliwahi ona special program moja kwenye Tbc mwaka jana mwishoni inaitwa 'okoa uwanja wa fisi' na eneo hilo likapewa jina jipya na kuitwa 'uwanja wa sifa' sijui kampeni hiyo imefikia wapi hadi sasa. Kwa ujumla ilikuwa nzuri na ilikuwa ime 'base' kwenye matatizo halisi yaliyopo i.e matumizi ya unga,ukahaba,pombe etc. At the long run nadhani itafanikiwa.
</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="morenews" align="left" bgcolor="#f3f3f3" valign="top"><!--ThumbBegin--><!--ThumbEnd-->Waandishi wetu mwishoni mwa wiki iliyopita walitinga katika maeneo hayo usiku na kumshuhudia changudoa mmoja akikata mauno huku akichojoa nguo ikiwa ni njia mojawapo ya kuwavutia wateja.
Changudoa huyo baada ya kuwaona waandishi wetu alianza kutoa nguo moja baada ya nyingine huku akitaja gharama za huduma ya ngono anayotoa kwa muda mfupi na kwa siku nzima ambapo wana habari wetu walimpiga picha kadhaa na kuondoka zao.
Kufuatia hali hiyo, waandishi wetu waliamua kufanya mahojiano na wakazi wa eneo hilo ambapo walisema kuwa, vitendo vinavyofanyika Uwanja wa Fisi usiku ni vya ufuska mtupu.
Asikwambie mtu, Uwanja wa Fisi ni ufuska mtupu usiku, watu wanafanya ngono zembe bila woga kutokana na gharama za mipira ya kiume kuwa juu kuliko malipo wanayotaka machangudoa kulipwa baada ya kutoa huduma yaw ngono.
Inasikitisha, lazima jitihada za haraka zifanyike kukomesha ufuska unaoendela la sivyo ukimwi utazidi kuenea kila kukicha, alisema mkazi mmjoa aliyejitambulisha kwa jina moja la Haroun.
Haroun aliongeza kuwa, ili kukomesha kabisa ufuska katika eneo hilo wanamuomba mkuu wa mkoa wa Dar es Salaam kufika Uwanja wa Fisi kwa kushtukiza majira ya jioni na kujionea ufuska unaoendelea.
