Mensch Curtins

Stefano Schröter

Manuela Curtins is one of the 800,000 people in Switzerland who struggle with reading and writing. At school, she was called "stupid" and didn't understand that illiteracy doesn't reflect intelligence. She always felt better understood by animals. Manuela Curtins finds refuge with Lotti, the cow, on her father's farm at Starpuns.
