Through the Eyes of Others

In-Module Content

Synopsis

Through the Eyes of Others follows eleven graduates of the Baltimore School for the Arts as they reflect on the meaning of success and if they've given up on their dreams as they prepare for their 20 year high school reunion. Through the eyes of this dynamic and diverse cast, we dig deep into addiction, trauma, mental illness, family relationships, racism, privilege, motherhood, and infertility while taking a critical look at the notions of success, purpose, and meaning in our lives. This is a film that asks, can we awaken our sleeping dreams together?

And if not, can we live a happy life without fulfilling our childhood dreams?
