"Wings of Evolution" is a film which revolves around the revolutionary educational system of Siragu Montessori School, a school for homeless and underprivileged children, located in the remote outskirts of Chennai in Tamil Nadu, India. For a long time, the focus of education in India has been one of compulsive learning procedures, rote learning and examination-based evaluation with no emphasis on children's understanding of concepts, critical thinking and implications in real life.
Siragu Montessori School, in spite of limited resources and unimaginable obstacles has maintained a quality program, for those who attend.

Moreover, the Documentary film also focuses on bringing together children from around the world, through a world-wide postcard sharing workshop where children from around the world share thoughts, exchange ideas and promote cultural diversity, global peace and understanding towards building a better tomorrow.

The fund raising for the Wings Of Evolution - Siragu Montessori School is also undertaken by [http://positivepeopletoday.org/ Positive People Today] which is a 501 (c3) non-profit organization, which aims to unite human beings all over the Earth on one simple principle"POSITIVE THINKING".
