Sur le chemin de l'école
- Documentary
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 and his younger sister from Kenya walk 15 kilometres each way through a savannah populated by wild animals; Carlito rides more than 18 kilometres twice a day with his younger sister, across the plains of Argentina; Zahira lives in the Moroccan Atlas Mountains who has an exhausting 22 kilometres walk along punishing mountain paths before she reaches her boarding school; Samuel from India sits in a clumsy DIY wheelchair and the 4 kilometres journey is an ordeal each day, as his two younger brothers have to push him all the way to school…
On the Way to School is a 2013 documentary that follows four children from Kenya, Argentina, Morocco, and India as they undertake extraordinary daily journeys to reach their schools. Each child faces unique obstacles—from wildlife-filled savannahs to mountain terrain to physical disability—yet remains determined to pursue education.
