"St. Declan's and THE MAGIC CHAIR" takes you inside an innovative school in Dublin, Ireland where children who have been failed by mainstream education discover self-confidence and their own unique abilities. Meeting each student as their needs require, inspired teachers unlock the children's trust and passion for learning with empathy and kindness. Weaving together documentary footage and animated shorts made by the children themselves, the film is a moving display of education's highest values: passion, trust, and above all, hope.
