An interesting film

On Saturday night, I saw a very good film. The name is Freedom writers, it is an American film directed by Richard La Gravense. It is based on a true story that took place in North America by the year 1993, in the classroom number 203 of a preparatory school. In this movie, a young teacher (Erin Gruwell) begins to work as an English teacher at Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach. At first, she had many problems with her students because they weren´t interested in taking classes at school. They rejected the idea of learning .This preparatory has an integrated program that admit students with serious behavior problems and many of them also have problems with law. So they segregate themselves into social groups in the classroom. School´s authorities believe that students have no chance to change their lives. So they give up teaching them and some teachers treat them as criminals without future. Fortunately, everything changes because, the new teacher has another point of view of teaching, she treats them as human being no matter color, race, and religion or if they have problems with law. Erin Gruwell teaches students the concept of tolerance and shows them that everything can change and everything is possible. She gives them books that tell true stories about people who have suffered from persecution during their whole lives. Books like The Dairy of Anna Frank who is a Holocaust´s survivor. So students fell indentified with some characters from the book. Finally, students collect their own experiences and write down their stories to be published. I do recommend watching this film; it is a very, good message of hope for everybody.
