Eye to Eye films
The Eye to Eye films support the teaching resources produced by the project but also provide teachers with a range of other issues, raised in the films, which they could explore with their classes.
You can also read and use the film transcripts (see right).
Due to the sensitivity of the issue on the ground, there is no film about the border crossing into South Africa.

This short film shows life for child workers and former child workers in Bolivia - the poorest country in South America. Meet Maria, Segundina and others who see the value in children working, particularly as this is a normal part of their family's survival or needed to contintinue their education. Many have formed NATS groups supported by former child workers, to make sure their rights are protected and they can work with dignity.
