Hope is a noun, the name of the feeling of positive expectation.
Hope is a verb, the wanting of something to be the case.
Hope depends on a feeling of trust, a presumption that another (the universe or others) will act, with us, on our behalf.
It is 1976 in dusty South Africa. Relentless Hope drives 11 y/o Kate to keep seeking a way out of her abusive life at home with Mom. This same Hope drives the family maid Grace to act against the oppressive regime of apartheid in that is her 'home'. Hope draws the two together in an unlikely friendship.
But stupid Hope, a careless investor of trust, could also bankrupt their souls. What will become of this unlikely comradeship?
