Comments from the Judges

“Excellent video with great imagery, audio, and layered statistics. There was a lot of good information, as well as segments that appealed emotionally to the viewer, which the musical background score helped in achieving.”

“The documentary did such an exemplary job of finding students, teachers and visuals to humanize these issues with depth.”
