They live in all four corners of the planet and share a thirst for knowledge. From the dangerous savannahs of Kenya to the winding trails of the Atlas mountains in Morocco, and the suffocating heat of southern India to the vast, dizzying plateaus of Patagonia, these children are all united by the same quest: to go to school. The four pupils are forced to confront and overcome countless, often dangerous obstacles. By setting foot on their extraordinary path, and embarking on an adventure littered with traps and challenges, they begin to leave their childhoods behind.

In French, Swahili, Maasa, and Spanish with English subtitles.
