Documentary showing (40 minutes) followed by a discussion with producer Petra Lent and director Len Morris, who will also be sharing an update on his Kenyan Schoolhouse program, by way of 15 minutes of footage from his travels to Kenya last month.

For the last 30 years, Island filmmaker Len Morris has filmed on every continent and across the U.S., observing the changes that have occurred, for better or worse, in children’s human rights. Drawn from never-before-seen footage, his latest film examines child labor in American agriculture as well as in tobacco, coffee, and cocoa farming elsewhere. It considers the plight of children on the street or in prison, and the massive inequality that consigns some to forced labor and contributes to 13.7 million fleeing for their lives. A measure of the gains made through advocacy, and a look at a new generation of youth activists and leaders, this film is a personal salute to the beauty and resilience of children.
