Update #9: GRADUATION!

Posted on April 7

I can't believe it's the last day. The graduation ceremony was simply amazing.

It has been an honor to be allowed to witness this process. I am truly amazed at the trust that the students and the staff gave us to tell their stories.

Thanks so much to all of our Kickstarter supporters. We couldn't have done this without your support.

Now we need to turn these hundreds of hours of footage into a film...

and begin shooting follow ups...

Thanks!

Christoph
