            Paint the world you want to see!

Carlos Silveira, an artist educator and social activist, wants to bring a sense of joy to impoverished children in Cambodia who are affected by HIV/AIDS. He has recruited 27 American university students to join him as part of a pilot program in using drawing and painting to help these children express their wishes and desires for their futures. As Carlos and the students grapple with the realities of a culture much different from their own, a language they don't understand, art projects that don't go as planned and a threeweek deadline, they form a bond with the children. Through these young Cambodian mentors, the Americans empower their own social activism and learn the true meaning of kindness, selflessness, courage and community.
