520    When final examinations are held in Conakry, the capital of Guinea, hundreds of students set out on a strange pilgrimage every evening, walking to the international airport, petrol stations or wealthier parts of the city, to places where they are sure to find street lights under which they can prepare for their exams. Some live close by, others have to walk for over an hour, to reach one of the few places with sufficient lighting. A similar hardship is faced by their teachers: every day, they have to work out how to attract the interest of classes full of exhausted students and how to prepare for the next school day without light. Only one in five in Guinea’s population of 10 million has access to electricity. A literal and metaphorical journey towards enlightenment, Black Out shows the children’s resourcefulness and determination as a metaphor for the country’s own struggle for change, and explores whether Guinea can at last fulfill its potential and secure a better future for its people.
