Filmmaker Bob Chelmick enthuses about a 'free education' school in the village of Atsalia, UP, India. The school is supported by Canadians through the Maanaw Seva Association charity in Edmonton, Alberta. Bob saw first hand how education is changing the lives of hundreds of village children - changing their family's prospects for generations to come. The school was founded by Edmonton Hindu priest Pandit Shiv Shankar Dwivedi, who grew up in Atsalia, before joining an ashram. Inspiring and heart-warming is Bob's description of how a little Canadian charity is doing big things in village India.
