Title from title frames
Cesar-winner Pascal Plisson ("On the Way Back to School") introduces four children from different regions of the developing world, all of whom have the ambition and talent to rise to the top. Their perseverance is the foundation of their dreams, and it fires their capacity to practice regularly and to make the most of their physical, mental, and emotional powers. A 15-year-old girl from Benares, India, studies to pass a test to gain a scholarship admission to a prestigious engineering school. A 19-year-old man in Uganda works hard in Queen Elizabeth National Park with dreams of becoming a ranger who protects endangered animals from poachers. An 11-year-old girl trains her lithe young body to bend in odd positions before her audition for an elite circus in Singapore. An eleven-year-old Cuban boy must show his boxing skills in hopes of attending Havana Sport Academy. THE GREAT DAY follows our four heroes on their very different paths to overcome academic, physical and socioeconomic struggles towards a brighter future
