This multiple award winning film (e.g., Sundance and Full Frame Documentary Film Festival) and 2008 Academy Award nominee (Best Documentary Feature), follows the historic journey of three children from the war zone in Northern Uganda --Dominic, Rose, and Nancy--and their school in the Patongo refugee camp, the first school from the northern war zone to make it to the finals of Uganda's national music and dance competition.
