Yo soy regente de un instituto que tiene 2000 . El documental me hizo dar cuenta ¡Cuanta falta hace gabinetes psicopedagógicos para el nivel superior!
Gracias Noemi. Convertiste el dolor en belleza. Me quedo pensando en la prevención, el autocuidado, la escucha, la pertenencia, la validación, inventar nuevas formas de existir y muchas cosas más. Gracias!

The viewing of Connecting the Dots was an amazing opportunity for my students. The stories shared by young people like themselves really spoke to them and we had some great conversations about mental health. I am grateful for all the support you have provided and for being able to utilize this amazing documentary. You have indirectly impacted my students in a positive way.
OUR GLOBAL VIRTUAL SCREENING WAS A SUCCESS!
With a full house and representation from more than 50 countries, these are some of the audience comments:
This film NEEDS to be seen by a broad audience. It was stunning. I had no idea youth and mental health was a global challenge.
It was one of the best documentaries I have “experienced”. It opened my eyes to what kids in my community are experiencing and will put more emphasis in my organization to reach out and become a better listener with friends who are kids.
It was one of the most incredible films I have seen. I have been wishing for years for there to be something that highlights the lived experiences of so many young adults and students. I hope that this continues that conversation around prevention and treatment – I’m hopeful that more teachers and adults in children’s lives will start to focus on mental health.
It was deep in its simplicity and authenticity. A very uplifting film that gave ideas and possible collaborations for a future blueprint for addressing the concerns, needs and treatment of youth mental health. B R A V O!
Such an empowering film with an uplifting effect! This film has the power to save lives.
It was one of the best documentaries I have “experienced”. It opened my eyes to what kids in my community are experiencing and will put more emphasis in my organization to reach out and try to become a better listener with friends who are kids.
