		Description: This
 documentary film takes us to India's Barefoot College, founded by 
Bunker Roy to provide rural women living in poverty with an education 
that empowers them to make their communities self-reliant and 
sustainable. Rafea, a 30-year-old Jordanian mother of four, travels 
outside her village for the first time to attend Barefoot's solar 
engineering program, where she meets students from Guatemala, Kenya, 
Burkina Faso, and Colombia. Join us for a free screening, followed by a 
locally focused discussion of issues raised in the film.
