MY BROWN EYES

Had a profound effect on them. "We could relate to how scared the boy felt because he didn't fit in." "I felt sorry for him." "It's not a fun video." "We have to watch videos like this to learn. It made me think about how I treat other people." "How frustrating it would be to not speak English in America."

Powerful. Complex and elegant short film. Hard-hitting story in a soft style that kids can watch. Inexpensive filming technique works well with story. Helps everyone understand the problems of a diverse society. "I was moved by the compassion in my kids' eyes as they watched the boy's struggles."

The camera follows the son of immigrant parents through his first day of school in America. Unable to speak English, the boy is ridiculed and ostracized by his classmates and teacher until someone is able to communicate with him.
