The Commonwealth Through Film (Secondary)

This film-focused resource enables teachers and students to explore what it means to be part of the Commonwealth, gain insights into the culture and identity of Commonwealth countries and reflect on life in Scotland, in the lead- up to the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Activities centre on five carefully chosen films from across the Commonwealth that will engage and excite students in exploring key themes: Lagaan: Once Upon A Time In India; The First Grader; Invictus; The Sapphires and Boy.
