Date & Time:

The projectionnist (details): A 7 year-old boy Rakib, discovers a film reel in a cinema theatre and learns how to work the projector. Since then, he has been juggling school, his family and his work as a projectionist – because whatever happens the screening has to go on.

 

Korankinder (details): In Bangladesh, the children of the madrasa (Islamic schools) recite the Qur’an. While parents are happy to send their children to these schools, what about the children themselves who are forced to memorise 6,000 verses in a language they don’t understand?
