Storyline:  Young Plato 2021 An observational documentary set in post conflict Belfasts Ardoyne, where a marginalized, working class community has for generations been plagued by poverty, drugs and guns This film charts the dream of Headmaster Kevin McArevey and his dedicated, visionary team illustrating how critical thinking and pastoral care can empower and encourage children to see beyond the boundaries and limitations of their own community We see how philosophy encourages young boys to question the mythologies of war and of violence, and sometimes challenge the narratives their parents, peers and socio economic group would dictate
