Program Description:

Each year the Masindi Secondary School runs Prefect Elections but this year is going to be different: a change in the rules allows girls to run for Head Prefect for the first time. Susan, a remarkable and strong-willed girl, takes up the challenge and competes to be Head Prefect, a job that all the boys in the school think can only be done by one of them. Nelson, meanwhile, stands against her. Twenty-first century feminism takes center stage as Susan and Nelson fight for the top spot.
