It draws upon the interviews conducted during pre-production with over forty children of immigrants New York and Berlin. The piece highlights five young people in each city and deals with issues of immigration, discrimination & bias-based harassment in schools, and identity. We have screened it in a number of classrooms, and are looking for a few more opportunities to get feedback from high school age youth. It works well as an hour long class session when partnered with our discussion guide. If you work with young people and would be interested in finding out more about hosting a feedback session, please contact: christina@withwingsandroots.com.
