Ithuteng (Never Stop Learning) -- HBO - Sunday, December 3, 2006 - 6:30 p.m. (EST)

Ithuteng (Never Stop Learning) is really a documentary film about a South African school dedicated to saving children lost to sexual and drug abuse. Schools like this don't just happen, of course. The technique used here is to have the students themselves dramatize their plight -- the brainchild of the school's founder, activist "Mama Jackey." And what makes this film even more powerful than its subject is its maker -- a 16-year-old named William Ebersol.
