The Human Rights Watch Film Festival (24 March - 1 April) returns to London with a programme of challenging documentaries and dramas. This year, in association with the Festival, we are proud to present two stunning films highlighting the struggle for the right to education in Kenya:

A Small Act

The documentary A Small Act follows former sponsored child Chris Mburu as he tries to replicate this generosity and fund a new generation of students in Kenya.
