Fewer that 50% of children in South Sudan will get any education. Only one in 10 finish Primary School. This film, for UNICEF, presents the importance of schools to a generation blighted by war, in an entertaining and accessible way.

12-year-old Tatheer embarks on a week-long Police boot camp for girls from a social housing estate in Copenhagen. Far from home, deep in the woods, she navigates grueling rituals, elusive social dynamics, and personal setbacks to find her place in this tender and revealing coming-of-age story.
