The short film, The Lighthouse, documents the lifework of Ms Mastura Rashid Khan Surattee, a Special Needs Educator who started a school to support students with special needs. We see the difficulties faced on the job and her journey towards becoming an effective facilitator for her students. The documentary highlights her qualities as a person and helps the audience understand that with every special needs child, there is always an individual nurturing his or her growth. The Lighthouse honours the educator’s strength, dedication, and compassion, and the film shows how she is an advocate for all special needs educators like herself.
