Good film about Maruge, an 84 year man who wanted to go to school to learn to read. He encounters problems with the administration and parents concerned their children are not the focus of the primary school. I thought the sub-story about his Mau Mau activities very poignant and probably not too well known by Americans. Overall, it is an uplifting, heartwarming story about a man determined to learn and educate himself even at the stage of old-age--a reminder that we are all never too old to learn.
