The African term “Ubuntu” means compassion and humanity and this fiction film about a group of Indian students and their engaged teachers tries to convey these values. When the elders of the town plan to shut down the local school for poor attendance, the kids unite and do everything to prevent their school from shutting down. Determined to take their future in their own hands, the protagonist have to convince more youth about the value of education to raise the number to 35.
