Street Teachers

Description

This documentary follows Narisaraporn Asipong, one of Thailand’s devoted street teachers, as she visits the homeless children in Bangkok in the hopes of getting them off the streets. Teaching is no longer a priority because basic survival takes precedent. We meet three of her young protégés who are struggling to survive without a home or family with the hope of turning their lives around. This “classroom” is often the only safe haven these kids have, and through the relentless efforts of the teachers, the walls of distrust and low self-esteem are broken down...and hope is restored.
