Effect of Mike and Stefani |
The general idea of the article is to highlight that "Mike and Stefani" got money donated towards it to get it screened in 35mm rather than 16mm, which meant that the quality of the film would be greater.
Keeping that in mind, it's interesting to note the effect that the film seemed to have had on this unnamed donor. As mentioned in the article, the woman who donated her money, mentioned the effect that the war had on her and how she felt that the film needed to be showed to commemorate the horrors that people faced throughout these times.
She says herself that 'I wanted to give something in their memory'.
