This video was produced by our office in Ethiopia. Here's the English translation:
The message behind the school clip is the following.
The teacher has given the student a home work to write poems under the title tomorrow. All the students but Abel, the sad boy in the clip, have written the poem comparing tomorrow with honey, chocolate, happiness, ice-cream and other fun and happy events and things. Abel, the sad boy who has lost parents to AIDS and is HIV positive can barely read his poem and lives the room in the clip, when the teacher read what he wrote it has very gloomy sprit. He tells of his sad life with out his parents and his lack of hope in today and there fore his inability to think of a good tomorrow. Heart broken by his poem, the teacher goes out of the class room and tells him that every one is by his side despite his situation. He also mentions that he is a good student and he shouldnt despair. After wards Abel changes the spirit of his poem in to one filled with hope, stating that due to the love and care from his classmates and teachers, he sees a better tomorrow.
