What was the producer trying to teach us? (What was the producers main purpose?)
The producers or for instincts, the maker of the film shows that no matter who you are
or what you are we are all equal in our own ways. Another example is how we use our
rise values. The first one represents how the film is played. Respect means “treat others
the way you want to be treated”. The producers or for instincts makers of the film, shows
how everybody is the same and just like in our school values or school motto(rise).
This shows that you must respect or treat others the way you want to be treated.
What can we further learn from this story that we can use/apply in our lives?
Think about: how choices link to well-being, time, gratitude.
This can trigger using your mental and emotional mindsets and sometimes social.
Why you may ask, it's because you might not like what you get and maybe some
people may say that you are a problematic person like those rude words everybody uses.
But they don’t realise that you probably like an amputee or like you don’t want to be
recognised as the child who has only one leg. This is just like bullying and also bullying
yourself in not stepping up. So what this message is just saying is that you can be yourself
but also not to just shut yourself out.
