A group of young Ghanaian women stand in straight military formation, their names replaced with numbers, while a bullish teacher shouts demands. Welcome to the Aviation and Technology Academy, a training school that specializes in teaching young women how to fly and maintain light aircraft - and offering an escape from the traditional roles available to women in the country. But just beneath the surface, a tension is bubbling up as their chauvinistic British teacher becomes increasingly unhinged, his treatment resonating like an echo of colonialism. Boasting international media attention, this charity runs like a military boot camp, pushing the girls closer to the edge until they are all but forced into a confrontation. In this truly rare documentary, director Monika Grassl captures something few films are able to: a spontaneous political awakening. (Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival)
