An Ode to Priests and a Desire for More

This documentary was okay, but it left me wanting more. The subject matter is undeniably heavy, and the film does a decent job of addressing it. However, I couldn't help but feel that it should have been longer to explore the depths of the emotional aftermath of such a tragic event. It's not every day you come across a documentary that tackles this kind of sensitive topic, so it had the potential for greatness.

One standout aspect was the portrayal of priests as pillars of the community during such a challenging time. It's refreshing to see them depicted as genuinely supportive figures, providing comfort and guidance to the affected individuals. In a world where clergy often get a bad rap, it's heartwarming to witness their positive impact. So, while "Lessons from a School Shooting" may fall short in some areas, it's worth a watch for its unique perspective on the role of priests in times of intense hardship.

Lessons (not) learned

A very brief and short documentary that could have put some light on the gun debate/reform many (if not all) Americans wish for. In light of the recent tragedy in New Zealand (a mass shooting that was born out of hate against a religion different than the one the shooter believes in), the people in power there will not build a wall, but rather get strong gun laws.

Now this obviously could not included this, but not just I realized the missed potential in the documentary. It's a short, but you could do more than show how politicians reacted or what they said after the mass shootings. And while I highly doubt that America will get the gun restrictions they desperately need, at least in my lifetime, the documentary still could have put a spot light on that. As it is and because it is just over 20 minutes, it is ok - which you can take either way I guess. Thoughts and prayers to the survivors and those affected - but those alone will not help the inevitable next tragedy from happening
