Story of a Stranger

The idea of this short film was that we're constant interacting with strangers. everyday we sit next to people on a park bench, ride the bus, walk past people on the street, etc. and these people have amazing stories. everyone has a story to tell. I interviewed a woman by the name of Dr. Edith Eger. She is an 80 year old holocaust survivor, and one of the most amazing women I've ever met. she's made so much of her life.

we live in the same city; I could have seen her before, but I wouldn't have ever heard her story. this is my attempt at showing this.

She has been to my University and is coming again at the end of October. She is wonderful.

Oh I've met her before. She's a very, very kind lady. She came to Austin (where I live) to talk to us about the holocaust. I had a question and I asked her and she was very , very kind.

Before rating this, read the upper right corner about the idea of the film. It is so true that we never know what another is going through, or has endured. If we knew, we'd probably all be so much more kind. I LOVE this video. Thank you putting it onto YouTube.
