Many short films like this are pitched as inspirational "if I can do it, you can too" stories and ignore the systemic barriers that some people are facing.

I think this gets it right, tells Ryan's story and offers two key points for me:

"If it wasn't for free school meals, I wouldn't have had an education."

"Simon Jones offered me a gateway to employment through the Outdoor Partnership"
