Children Full of Life

These are probably some of the most moving videos I've seen. Letters written throughout the time this very special teacher spends with his pupils become a viable means of compassion and maturity.
"In the award-winning documentary Children Full of Life, a fourth-grade class in a primary school in Kanazawa, northwest of Tokyo, learn lessons about compassion from their homeroom teacher, Toshiro Kanamori. He instructs each to write their true inner feelings in a letter, and read it aloud in front of the class. By sharing their lives, the children begin to realize the importance of caring for their classmates."
