Alin, Beni, and Dana, three Roma children from a small Transylvanian town, participate in a project to desegregate the local school, struggling against bigotry with humor, optimism, and sass. Shot over four years, this tender vérité story touches on institutionalized racism in education and intractable poverty, culminating in an outrageous finale that cements the Roma children’s struggle in the annals of egregious human rights violations. Our School is an absorbing, infuriating, and ultimately bittersweet story of tradition and progress.
