Synopsis
Every day, a young girl passes a statue of a man celebrated as a hero, yet she knows he doesn't represent kindness or peace. Inspired by real events in Bristol, England, 'A Hero Like Me' follows her journey as she questions historical figures and seeks true heroes in her community. This story encourages children to stand up for justice and recognise their own power to effect change.
