“To This Day”
A beautiful animated short film paired with powerful spoken word poetry. I haven’t been this deeply moved in a long time. The film touches on the topic of bullying in a poignant, impactful way. Powerful, powerful stuff, people. If you have 8 minutes. Watch this. Now. And share it with your friends. Can’t stress this enough. Here’s a synopsis below:
To This Day Project is a project based on a spoken word poem written by Shane Koyczan (shanekoyczan.com) called “To This Day”, to further explore the profound and lasting impact that bullying can have on an individual.
Schools and families are in desperate need of proper tools to confront this problem. We can give them a starting point… A message that will have a far reaching and long lasting effect in confronting bullying.
Animators and motion artists brought their unique styles to 20 second segments that will thread into one fluid voice.
This collaborative volunteer effort will demonstrate what a community of caring individuals are capable of when they come together.
