Tawharn, 17, wants to become a doctor, but he is not allowed to attend local schools, because he is one of the 730,000 Rohingya refugees who fled from Myanmar in 2017 and are now living at cramped camps in Bangladesh's Cox's Bazar. Undeterred by the situation and determined to bring change to his long suppressed community, Tawharn goes to classes taught by former Rohingya teachers in a tent school shared by students of different highschool levels.
