The film is adapted from William Kamkwamba's autobiography The Boy Who Rides the Wind
(The Boy Who Harnessed The Wind)
Tell a life-changing story:
Kamkwamba himself at the age of 13
Insight into the needs of wind power generation with your own eyes
Change the farming habits inherent in the village with your own hands
Wind turbines built from scrap metal, old bicycle parts and wood
he saved his village
no longer like a poor supplicant
Ask God for rain and a good harvest
Instead, I believe that endless "green" can be born on the barren land
This is modern life created by a mind with knowledge
The film tells the story of such a young wind chaser who becomes more and more frustrated
Following the guidance of teenagers, we can also hope to be touched
Red and blue uniforms, teenagers studying
This is a primitive town
People work and farm to the local trading floor to buy life items
All matters are negotiated by the local chief
13-year-old Kamkwamba also got a chance to go to school
He put on the red and blue uniform and began to yearn for school life
Boys really love to learn
He would sit by the window in rainy weather and study
It's a pity that poverty can't meet his needs for lighting and learning at the moment
So he helped his father to farm together
But "upright" classroom learning time is limited
Boy expelled from school for lack of money at home to pay $80 a year
But he was thinking about the lectures in the knowledge class in the school library
So he, who loves learning, sneaks into the school library and classroom
He may be the only kid who sneaks out of the fields to study
The existence of a system is inexcusable cruelty
This "stealing" time was officially discovered by the principal
Again he was fired
In times of famine, teenagers bury dogs
Local tobacco companies came to lobby many people to realize the land in their hands
Let the "people from the company" cut down the windbreaks in their fields
The boy witnessed this scene with his father
powerless
That windbreak not only represents economic value
It is a green barrier for the local land
So the flooded villages had to endure the years of famine
Government's 'limited relief' won't relieve their hunger
There are even some "predators" in many places
Preying on women and children while men at home are away
Wanton plundering of stock at home
This kind of robbery is even worse for the boy's family
The family lived on the food that the boy finally brought back from the centralized relief point
So when you are not hungry
Father doesn't allow boy to leave food to his samba
It's hard to imagine how these animals could endure starvation in an environment of nothingness
So that day still came the boy had to bury it himself
How he wished he could save it
more than it
The wind is blowing, the young man looks away
Smart boy did find a way to save a village from starvation
However, it suffers from the lack of materials and manpower.
Originally he needed the DC machine on the school teacher's bike
The boy's sister and teacher left it to him after he ran away
Then he needs to perform a small experiment to prove his conjecture:
Wind can be converted into electricity to drive electrical devices
This time he found a companion to carry out the plan together
But he was severely denied when he showed the results to his father
This left the boy wondering what to do next
But he never doubted that he was right
He needs to change the environment of the town
"i can make water" he firmly believes
No longer subject to the will of God, no longer controlled by the lack of water
He needs a bigger "windmill" to drive more power
So he came with his mates to tell his father how he needed his bike
Of course, there was a lot of taunting and anger.
friends go away
Desperate look in the boy's eyes
The change of the story is still in the words of the mother
Praying to God does not change the status quo
What does the child want and why can't support him
How much more does she have to lose before she can stop grieving
Every word of the proverb speaks to my father's heart
The boy who finally got his father's bike starts contacting the crowd
Build a humble but workable windmill together
Provides much-needed electricity to the local area and brings water as promised
He is the "wind boy"
Standing on the windmill and looking at the endless green
is the best reward for him
His boldness and ingenuity
Saved countless lives, gave them hope, spread modern ideas
Also made Kamkwamba himself funded by a professor in Malawi

Father said:
Whether he leaves or not , he will always be remembered here
As long as people look at the windmill
Will naturally think of the boy who rides the wind
