“Life is the world’s greatest filmmaker. It writes better than any of us. It stages scenes we would never have dared to imagine.

Helping young people see life differently, to tell its story through their own sensibilities, is essential. If a school like ESRA gives them the means to film what they feel, then it does more than teach a trade: it passes on a passion that cannot be explained, only lived.”
