Film Synopsis
A portrait of several children from around the world who share the same
thirst for knowledge. Each of them realises that education is the
only way by which they can improve their lives. This is why,
every day, they undertake a hazardous journey to acquire the knowledge
they prize so highly. First there is Jackson, 11, who lives in
Kenya. Each morning and each evening he and his little sister
must cross fifteen kilometres of rough terrain inhabited by wild
animals. Then there is Samuel, 13, who lives in India and whose
daily four kilometre journey is a challenge as he no longer has the use
of his legs...
