It Takes A Village

When we started this documentary film journey back in 2012, we were armed with nothing but a camera, passion, and the determination to get Meixi and her students’ stories told.

It’s been a huge labour of love so far, with us juggling film shoots with earning a living so we can keep putting food on the table. Through the years, we’ve captured over 120 hours of footage and witnessed our teenage protagonists grow up right before our eyes. We’ve met with dozens of educators, teachers and parents for both feedback and support. And we’ve put hours into applying for as many grants and lab programs as we could.

Help Us Go Further

Today, our vision for Unteachable, and its potential to touch lives is clearer than ever. We have exciting plans for how the film can be used as a powerful tool to help educators and parents work with students to rediscover the joy of learning.

While our energy and spirits have kept us going so far, the truth is, we need your help to get Unteachable seen by as many educators and parents as possible.

Together, we’ve finished the film. With your help, we can get this film seen and used as a tool to spark discussion and action. Will you pitch in today?

With gratitude,
Shuling, Lisa and the Unteachable team
