PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - It was named by elementary kids and created by college students.
Now a new documentary captures a timeless moment as Catholic based education continues to change. And while the faces change from school to school, these last days at Saint Brendan school in Providence will seem familiar
Student's whose great grandparents went here and their teachers tell you how hard it was to let go. Like other Catholic schools, attendance was down even if hope was high as ever.
A crew of three from URI and CCRI collected 14 hours of interviews and whittled it down to 35 minutes. The director, a Saint Brendan graduate. The movie is wrapped up with a song, and as simple and as sharp as the title.
The film is still a work in progress.
