Powerful statement

I am writing this review because nobody else has, this is a short but powerful drama about the power of ignorance combined with miss representation in media for fueling prejudice among children as well as how easy it is to plant negative ideas and fear in a child about himself.

The movie has one child that stands ous as the voice of reason and education without being to obvious about it, acting as the small shred of hope in an otherwise pretty awful environment.

The movie it self is actually nothing new, maybe not talked or shown enough, but colored children in a white environment are subjected to a whole lot of obstacles. It reminded me of the time I worked with kids in the country side when I got the question when the child was adopted when we got a child from an ethnic minority as well as well as the three year old child I worked with who once counted the white people on the tram and then said she wished she was white. So the way this child thought about himself as well as related to his surroundings was no surprise to me.

The way it is filmed is pretty powerful and it does make a strong statement, without sugarcoating the least bit this kid is thrown out in to the world to fight his own battle. I wish he would not have to fight his own battle, seeing it is a battle the grown ups and our society should be in charge of but I guess knowing how the world works the kid will be forced to do this and it should infuriate us all.
