One more short documentary to end off the week! This nugget is one another put together by the good folks over at Variable and is the story of Władysław Tomczyk, a violinist in the streets of Poland. Have a good weekend folks!
It’s remarkable when you think about how each person is the keeper of their own story.

Shane Koyczan is an incredible vocal artist and put together this short based around the power of his spoken word. With collaborations from a number of animators and designers, he put together this powerful message on bullying that goes so much farther than traditional campaigns. It’s 7 minutes long, but 7 minutes worth it.
