In Pakistan, every third child is out of school – and the situation is dire in particular for children belonging to the ethnic group of the Pashtuns. Poverty, corruption, terrorist attacks, and traditions that sometimes oppose to secular education all get in the way of these kids. And yet, some don’t give up. We meet Jalal, who’s school classes take place in a tent in the mountains – and we follow his and his father's fight for better education.
