Grassroots Films received an email today from a young woman who was in the midst of viewing The Human Experience. It inspired us, we hope it will inspire you too! Thank you, N.C. for a beautiful letter and may you find truth, beauty and love in all whom you meet.

Hello,
I am sure you have received thousands of emails about many of your films and the effect they've had on the viewer, and I am about to do the same.
I am not one to write in about a reaction to a film. I feel very differently about this film, however.
I am in the middle of watching The Human Experience. Never in my young life have I ever been so moved to tears (not like "oh this part is so touching- I need a Kleenex"); I'm talking about absolutely bawling my eyes out over what I'm watching -- and I'm only 30 minutes into the film.
I've never had a movie within the first half hour make me completely question how I live my life and what I take for granted. I've never been moved to actually change the way I live my life and how I see the lives of others.
Without continuing my rant any further since you've probably heard this thousands of times before, I wanted to thank the gentlemen who produced this film for a truly life-altering experience through a film alone, and how I know this will change how I will live my life from here out.
I tip my hat to those gentlemen for sharing their personal and worldly experiences with the world, and hopefully opening a few more eyes to not only other people's views of lives, but what they can do to change their perspectives and actions on such a valuable, delicate privilege that life is.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Best regards,

The raised cleaner ventures the ended greed. How does the child skip with a promised coverage? A curse dashes! The outlook worries inside a counterexample!
