A rural region in Argentina, a primary school in the middle of fields that are sprayed with pesticides from the air, the likeable and self-confident music teacher Ramiro Lezcano and his enthusiastic pupils: This is the starting point for this documentary, which shows not only how many positive things a single person can achieve despite great resistance, but also that there is a lot of truth in Herbert Grönemeyer’s song “Kinder an die Macht” (Power to the children). A film with an abundance of music, carried by enthusiasm, which almost makes you forget that it is a documentary.
