This film is a compilation of written stories, photographs and videos developed by high school schools in NYC documenting their personal experiences during the pandemic.
Young adults from the RISE Shore Corps Program worked with professional writers, filmmakers and photographers to learn to write and photograph their own personal experiences during the pandemic to capture a moment in time, unlike any other.
All of this work was done in the midst of the pandemic over the summer of 2020 through a series of remote classes and outdoor sessions with professional mentors; writing coach Amy Sultan, photographer Matthew Septimus and film editor Nick Nehez.
