Mary's Meals and Child 31

Child 31 is a powerful documentary film which tells the story of Mary's Meals, a charity which provides a life-changing meal to hungry children every school day.

The inspiring film follows Mary's Meals founder Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow to Malawi, India, and Kenya and gives the viewer a glimpse of his simple, yet ground-breaking approach that aims to lift the developing world out of poverty.

When Child 31 was released in 2012, the charity was providing 700,031 children with a daily meal in their place of education. It is now reaching over 822,000 children across the world as part of its mission to draw children into the classroom and help them realise their dreams.
