34、998, on a three-week vacation journey in Nepal, Wood met a local headmaster who invited him to visit his school in a far mountain village. The experience changed Woods life.

36、n be found in 10 countries across Asia and Africa. Wood believes the key to the programmes success is local support.

It uses two film projectors. One projects a left eye image and the other projects a right image. The 3D

44、 glasses allow us to see a different image in each eye. While watching 3D films, we feel that we are in the same environment as the things were watching. However, it also has its disadvantages.
