Hi guys

Very ..
I agree

this sent such a moving message, thank you so much for recommending this to me youtube; *two years after it was made*
This short film is a work of art, the themes of good coexistence and how a small action can help a person. congratulations to the director and actors
wow, thanks for the ❤️. I will treasure it forever!
We watched this at school and now we’re making mini movies lol

Me I was afraid to watch it XD

This made me think abt the thing that adults says, "Kids are mean with other kids" They're not, they're mean because you don't know how to raise your kid. Don't reject the fault on a toddler who's just learning life how he see it, and you're supposed to make what he see beautiful.
Lol no that is not the case. Kids CAN be mean, yet are complete angels at home. Work for the school and tell me kids aren't mean lol yes it also reflects parenting, based on the child's behavior, but again, some kids are just downright mean or natural bullies/bossy.
Honestly this film spoke my soul as the weird kid in my class that wears a blindfold due to light sensitivity I got to say this is a really good film probably my favorite
Had to look at the comments to make sure it wasn't a horror film 😆

Bethany’s a true friend, a keeper
Bethany?
A person in my schools called bethany
@@Ak3m11_ my old grade is called bethany xD
When you say “a keeper” it reminds me of Bonnie from Pokémon xy
BETHANY I MADE BISCUTS
A few years later… Bethany: I can’t come to your tea party sorry Ana. Annabell: BETHANY IMADE BISCUITS.
"just *hop* over there" Why'd I laugh at that joke?!
Same
I was thinking this was gonna be a horror short film lol
TP FradeN me too!
And that's how Bethany and Annabelle became bestfriends for life :'')

First reply :)

This is great, the acting is amazing, the scenes are beautiful. Keep doing what you're doing. This is beautiful. Never give up and don't let your guard down! ❤🤲
Awww, that girl is so kind!
Awww that little girl's eyes are so beautiful!🤩And that boy that took her mask off is a BRAT
I’ve seen this 1 million times, every now and then. Such a beautiful story.
ikr it has a sad beginning but at the end she wasn't in it alone.
That was so cute! Loved every second of it!
I think u should have more likes to this comment :)
@@amberbaca8677 i liked your reply
I love how they all tried to make her feel better
who got this on their recommended 😂😂 and why is this only being seen like right now 😂😂
This reminds me of a situation I had as a little kid!😂 My mom had a friend over for dinner, and I had this huge nosebleed. I was in the bathroom panicking because of the blood everywhere, and my mom helped me clean it up. She put a piece of tissue in my nose to keep it from bleeding. I was so embarrassed by the toilet paper stuck up my nose that I refused to leave the bathroom and go back to the table. My mom’s solution to this was to get pieces of tissue paper for everyone, including my sister, the guest, and herself! That night, everyone around the table had tissue paper stuck up their noses. I love my mom so much!!😂😂♥️♥️♥️ Such a great parenting move.
I wish my mom was as nice as that
That’s so cute!
That was nice of your mom :D
oh those Americans, and we're going to do everything.
God , that was so cute and weird at the same time , it' s more cute than all the short film i seen before 😍

I’m a random Girl she’s a child you creep!
Dat firey Bunny children can be beautiful too! It doesn’t have to be in a creepy or sexual way.
She absolutely is!
Dat firey Bunny I’m not a creep I am complimenting her I just think she is pretty and I am a girl so I ain’t lesbian
Yes with her sharpie draw on mustache.
So cute and sweet! Glad it had a happy ending
良いお話!最近の世の中もこうなってほしいな😉
She so cute when she said *Ow!* 😂💖🐰
This is not funny
And that's how you stop bullying: By taking the bullied kid's side and being their friend.
Yes.
I thought u said you take the bully’s side and be their friend 😧
How does that stop it
The fact that this put such a bug smile on my face
Accepting and Love is Overflowing in their Classroom so inspirational😊🎉
GUYS ITS NOT A DRAWED MUSTACHE ITS A BIRTHMARK. AND SHE WAS SO EMBRASSED BECAUSE OF THIS AND SHE COULDNT HIDE SO SHE TOOK A MASK TO HIDE IT
makes more sense i really thought it was marker
Makes sence but it kinda just doesn't look like a birthmark
Ok so for those who didn't find a meaning to this, here's what I've noticed: The beard is a symbol, something that we all have and tend to hide from people. (Don't come at me with the fact that she didn't hit puberty and can't grow a beard, I know that) when we hide things, we make it more obvious, and kids usually are very sensitive over this behaviour and they often laugh about it. By the moment she revealed it, everyone started to laugh. Just one person noticed that it was normal or maybe cool, so the classmate painted on her face a beard as well. The other kids noticed that and they all realized that it's not something to joke about, but to appreaciate. The beard can be a symbol for anything: scars, freckles, hair color, etc. I've experienced something similar during my life since I've switched schools like crazy, but something's clear: do not be afraid to show yourself. (I rewatched it and noticed that her mom has a black dot on her eye, that's cool! I don't know it that's seen as bad from other people but I'm just theorizing)
You, are one hell of a sharp eye.
