This special presentation of Going on 13—a documentary chronicling the lives of four East Bay girls from ages 9 to 13—was part of a professional development day for 26 faculty members at the Julia Morgan School. After the film, the two directors led a discussion, during which the teachers all expressed a great personal connection with the film and its subjects. Many of the stories in the film gave them the chance to reflect on the hardships their own students are currently going through. The filmmakers found the experience equally beneficial, and will be utilizing the teachers’ positive feedback as a foundation for the educational outreach strategy that they are developing for their film.
