This film was created by a group of students who feel that success in education is too often linked to achievements in scientific subjects. This film makes a plea for the Arts, the so-called ‘soft subjects’ illustrating how without a solid creative foundation the world would be much diminished.

The film is very stylised and the participating students were involved in every aspect from commissioning original music to deciding on the lighting states as well as the sound, camera, scripting and editing of the film.

Six members of Adobe Youth Voices were given the task of creating a song and music video that addresses one of the main issues or concerns that they see within their own communities. After discussing and brainstorming several topics, the group decided to focus on stereotypes and created a song that sends the message: “Even though we are different, we experience many of the same struggles.” Their collaborative effort, along with their creativity and commitment to the project, produced an extremely well-put together video with a powerful message.
Made as part of the Adobe Youth Voices Filmmaking Camp at the Cinequest Film Festival, this music video tells the story of three young men choosing the right path to make change in their communities.
This music video is about the experience that illegal immigrants face: the danger, not knowing what might happen to them on their journey, to commemorate the struggle of immigration, and for the brave people who try to make a living in a place they don't know. Especially the youth, trying to make it on their own every day, looking for a brighter future.
