The typical citizen of our world is young, poor, female and often illiterate. But women who learn to read and write learn not only to express themselves but that they have a self to express. This documentary, presented by Germaine Greer, features women in Mali, Thailand, Costa Rica and New York for whom literacy is making a difference and shows a number of projects that advance literacy for women while being responsive to their immediate needs.
