a tiny sand the that borrows into people's feet creating serious health problems all reports have been equal at a ball visited a school in two sawmill children are being trained to help each other combat the condition. to read up past the loves going to school the best part is being able to concentrate on her lessons but that wasn't always the case the twelve year old speed used to be full of jagers tiny sand fleas that borrow into people's bath leisure causing burning painful lesions. terrible i couldn't play i couldn't jump i scratch myself mostly at night for a long time like you will see. other children at this primary school in consumer county still suffer from the minute parasite constant itching and severe pain makes it difficult for the

infected students to walk and impossible for them to concentrate in class untreated to this can lead to deform glimps gangrene and fatal tetanus infections jagers are a widespread but neglected health problem in africa official figures are hard to come by in the schools here in almost a third of pupils i'm connected with jake is going to have them. so much pain ever tire was scratching myself. it was too painful. i still feel pain. it's not just the pain of the actual infection that's the problem but also the teasing and social exclusion by the other children the students here dipankar primary school have decided to do it differently instead they are helping each other. here in the local ngo has been training these children who've made it their mission to take a guess what's more being treated by their friends and peers has helped fight the

fear of the treatment and the stigma associated with the disease. across consumer students i know how scouts they are challenging the believe that having degrees is a poor people's disease and helping their school mates heal and instead of the traditional method of putting up the fleas which is excruciating they're using a pain free technique where. we start with the ones who are severely infected and we wash their feet we put them in a second basin with fresh water and they stay there with their feet inside for five minutes. then the scouts wipe the whole legs with medicine and we ask them to sit in the sun one of the three does brothers at work and he will last you will soon be jiggered free then just like derrida will be able to enjoy school again. let me introduce a dickens treatment to be if noticed a definite change in the students' performance i pushed the school generally improved and they scored high in the national exams and seeing them heal and

starting to play with each other let us made me happy as a health teacher. the good treatment has changed things students' lives. i love going to the river to fetch water i love to study and to play i feel better because i am here and that can play i can walk properly i can jump us well. three to hopes that obvious goals across the region will adopt this way of dealing with the bigger fleet she runs on the pupils to be able to love school as much as she does. to be ivory coast bustling economic capital now where a film festival with a difference was taking place this past weekend the bushman film festival is the first of its kind of french speaking west africa it attracted thousands of entries from around the world and they were all films shot with smartphones and tablets is a look at some of the budding filmmakers at work. are these filmmakers

a young creative and they understand that a smartphone can help them push past the problem of expensive professional film equipment. business we want to show people that we can make films but unfortunately we don't happen to have the means does that mean we have to stop just because we don't have the means doesn't mean we don't have a dream so we find a way to express our dreamers this is only the second year this festival for films shot purely on smartphones or tablets is taking place it sets no age restrictions for filmmakers and then attracted more than five thousand entries from around the world. but compared to t.v. it's a different thing because there's a lot more noise the picture is not clear but it's still good. this film festival is held at the bushman cafe in abidjan a place for actors and directors filmmakers and film lovers to meet

a network and ultimately get more and better films made. in what we said we support talent and show them that it's not only about getting the films we're now simply giving them exposure. it's because of some awards and sponsors we've won that we've been able to support these talents to produce better films get their films launched and get others to be proved cost them larger platforms. mobile phones are now a legitimate ineffective tool for low to no budget filmmakers and it's the bushman film festivals that aim to bring new talent from west africa in particular to audiences worldwide. and that is it for now from africa you can catch all our stories on our website and on our facebook page now to all the rock lovers amongst you we leave you with some music from well that google's rock a welcome festival which was on over the weekend the next time i buy.
