African School - Running For Your Life

Primary school head Mr Ntairaho is taking part in a survey of displaced children in the Masindi district. The area is full of people who have fled the gruesome fighting further north where the Lords Resistance Army (LRA) is taking on the Ugandan government and terrorising the local population. But ordinary life goes on too. This film is also the story of Opio, an orphan who came to Masindi after his parents were killed in the LRA fighting. Opio is a skilled athlete whose father ran at national level and Opio is striving to run in his footsteps.
