I first learned of this film when I worked at www.SchwabLearning.org.
Ben Foss came to visit us, and we were all deeply moved. I remembered
this when I was asked to be on the committee for our upcoming Literacy
Breakfast. We will show six minutes of the film there before the rest of
the program.
 
Other than that, I haven't had an opportunity to share it in person. I
am delighted that a wider audience is discovering it. After earning his
MBA and law degrees from Stanford, Ben Foss is now Head Researcher for
Assistive Technology in the Digital Health Group of Intel. He's also a
wonderful person.
 
Privately, I have asked him if he would like to send a paragraph to this
list.
 
Best wishes,
 
Robbie
