This documentary is a poignant and inspiring film that sheds light on the challenges faced by children in accessing education, especially in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In terms of story development, viewers may appreciate how the film provides a platform for children to express their views on education and the challenges they face in accessing it. The film also highlights some innovative solutions that are being developed to address these challenges. One potential area of criticism could be the lack of depth in exploring the issues facing children in accessing education. While the film provides a valuable perspective on the challenges, one may feel that the documentary could have delved deeper into the systemic issues and underlying causes of school dropout rates in Ecuador and around the world. Still, this is a thought-provoking and inspiring documentary that raises important questions about the future of education. It is a valuable contribution to the ongoing conversation about how to create a more equitable and inclusive school system for all children. This is a documentary-style film that captures real-life situations and interviews with children. The camera work is visually engaging, with a mix of wide shots to establish the setting and close-ups to capture the emotions and expressions of the children. The settings are in real-world locations, including schools and homes, which provide an authentic and relatable setting for the interviews and footage. I appreciates the use of music and sound to create a sense of cultural and regional identity, reflecting the diversity and richness of Ecuadorian and Latin American cultures. The puppets used in this film are adorable and add a whimsical feel to the film. The children in the film share their experiences well; their answers and comments feel real and passionate. My favorite aspects of this film are the puppet interludes.
The film's message is focused on working towards a more equitable and accessible education system for all children
