BBC Two - Zimbabwe's Forgotten Children - Update

Film catching up with the children of the original documentary one year on.

Comic Relief presents an updated version of the 2010 documentary, Zimbabwe's Forgotten Children. We catch up with the children to see how their lives have changed one year on.

Comic Relief presents an updated version of 2010's astonishing film, Zimbabwe's Forgotten Children. The original told a powerful tale of the gaping chasm between what the children of Zimbabwe hope for and what their country can provide. One year on, this update comprises a shortened version of the documentary, and a chance to catch up with the children and see how their lives have changed since the film was first shown. 

Beautifully shot, this moving film is full of harrowing moments, not least the emptying of a school, class by class, as pupils who haven't paid their school fees are sent home.
