Jaz Ampaw Farr has audiences in stitches – her resilience and wit have captivated thousands – but she spent her childhood locked in cellars and bounced between foster homes. From living in a brothel in Nottingham as a child, to international stages as an adult, Jaz’s journey is a testament to the power of what she calls “Everyday Heroes” – five teachers who saw beyond the ‘problem child’. This film is a wake-up call that challenges what we think we know about resilience, education, and the human spirit.
