An award-winning film by Pascal Plisson, “Sur le chemin de l’école” (On the way to School) was a huge success and led to the creation of an association in 2013 which aimed to provide youth with long-term support in their efforts to access education. 

These children live in the four corners of the planet and all have in common the desire to learn. Instinctively, they know that their survival and happiness depend on knowledge and education. The film shows us the lives of  schoolchildren who face a thousand difficulties each day in their journey to their school.
