On the way to school
Year of production 2013 Documentary . 77 min
These children live in the four corners of the earth, but share the same thirst for learning.
They understand that only education will allow them a better future and that is why, every
day, they must set out on the long and perilous journey that will lead them to knowledge.
Jackson, 11, lives in Kenya. Twice a day he and his younger sister walk 15 kilometres
through a savannah populated by wild animals...
Carlito, 11, rides more than 18 kilometres twice a day with his younger sister, across the
plains of Argentina, regardless of the weather...
Zahira, 12, lives in the Moroccan Atlas Mountains. An exhausting walk on foot along
punishing mountain paths awaits her before she and her two girlfriends can reach their
boarding school...
Samuel, 13, lives in India. The 4 kilometres he has to travel each day are an ordeal, as
he doesn't have the use of his legs. His two younger brothers have to push him all the way
to school in a makeshift wheelchair...
ON THE WAY TO SCHOOL immerses us in the extraordinary routines of these children,
whose sheer will to accomplish their dream leads them onto a path we have all walked -
but never like this.
We often wonder what kind of planet we will leave to our children -
but what kind of children will we leave to the planet?
