Film Education

Kiran wants nothing but normality: to go to an ordinary school, to learn to read and to do  homework. With his mother, though, he is growing up in an alternative environment, their home being a yurt in the Pyrenees. He knows how to grow salad, which plants taste good and which ones you’d better not eat. Yet he has no idea what’s on TV in the evening and cannot handle a computer. At the school he goes to now, there’s lots of dancing, singing and praying. Kiran feels pretty understretched.
