In the heart of Tel Aviv there is an exceptional school where children from 48 different countries and diverse backgrounds come together to learn. Many of the students arrive at the Bialik-Rogozin School after fleeing poverty, political adversity and genocide. The film follows several students' struggle to acclimate to life in a new land while slowly opening up to share their stories of hardship and tragedy. A moving account of how compassion, dedication, goodwill and enormous patience can help change the lives of children from utter despair to a world of possibilities. Here, no child is a stranger. Reception follows screening.
