CHIFF19: Chuskit

The Story

“Charming and rewarding.” — Cinestaan

To chase her dream of going to school, a feisty paraplegic girl rebels against the traditions of her family members and other elders in her remote Himalayan village. 9-year-old Chuskit has spirit and determination that are infectious, but in a village that is paved only by rough stones, a school that can only be reached by a river crossing, and a family with little money, how can her dreams ever come true?

The vibrant colours of northern India match the colourful characters in this heartwarming tale of a young woman carving an unexpected path for herself.
