Kids on the Silk Road

"Kids on the Silk Road" is 15 stories about children between the ages of 11 and 14, from 15 countries along the old silk route: India, Kyrgyzstan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Mongolia. Each story shows how the individual child deals with life's challenges, big and small, which they face in their specific cultural and social contexts. The stories are both authentic and easy to relate to because the main character tells you their own stories. Although the stories presented in the documentaries are small, they revolve around big universally recognizable themes such as love for animals, sports, developing your talents, realizing your dreams, finding yourself, and disagreeing with parents - part of every child's life.
