- Summary
- Forgotten books and songs and outdated English teaching methods left over from the British colonial rule, which ended over 40 years ago, structure the lives of children devastated by war and poverty, and give them hope. The film captures the impressive perseverance of teachers and children despite few resources in this Freetown community school struggling with the heritage of the civil war in Sierra Leone.
