What is the future of education in a networked world? TED Prize-winning scientist Sugata Mitra installs an unmanned Internet kiosk in a remote Bengali village to pioneer “The School in the Cloud”. As children encounter the Internet for the first time, will they be able to use it to transform their futures?
The School in the Cloud releases in UK cinemas from October 19th 2018, and on Vimeo On Demand from October 26th. It’s also heading to festivals in Italy, Norway, Poland and the USA.
