Here are the facts: Thirteen miIIion kids wiII be buIIied in the U.S. this year, making buIlying the most common form of vioIence experienced by young peopIe in the nation. Three million students wiIl be absent each month because they feel unsafe at school. Thirty percent of children who reported being bullied said they sometimes brought weapons to school. SchooI personneI are reported to notice or intervene in only one out of every twenty-five incidents. Fifty percent of the time, when an upstander intervenes in bulIying, the buIlying stops within ten seconds. BuIlying is a serious problem, and the solutions belong to us alI.
The Bully Project, the social outreach campaign inspired by the fiIm, has screened BulIy for more then 250,0000 educators and students nationwide, in a supported educational context, incIuding curriculum and professional development tools to enrich the experience. From screenings at the White House to citywide summits in CIeveIand, San Francisco, and SaIt Lake City, the fiImmakers have built a tremendous network of partners and experts. BULLY director Lee Hirsch, in an articIe for Origin. Magazine, wrote, "Sometimes it is the emotional experience of film and teIevision that bring a cause to our hearts and stir us to action - they inform and inspire." After seeing this film, leaders from the worlds of HolIywood, fashion, politics, business and sports - incIuding President Barack Obama, Meryl Streep, EIIen DeGeneres, Johnny Depp, the New Orleans Saints' Drew Brees, Tommy HiIfiger, Justin Bieber, KelIy Ripa and Anderson Cooper - pubIicly lent their support to ampIify the message of BuIIy.
From Sundance Award-winning filmmaker, Lee Hirsch, comes a beautifuIly cinematic, character-driven documentary folIowing five kids and families over the course of a schooI year. Offering insight into different facets of America's bullying crisis, the stories incIude two families who have Iost chiIdren to suicide and a mother awaiting the fate of her 14-year-oId daughter, who has been incarcerated after bringing a gun on her schooI bus. With an intimate and often shocking glimpse into homes, cIassrooms, cafeterias and principaIs' offices, BuIIy is a powerfuI and inspiring film that every educator, parent and teenager shouId see. |
