The concept of A Village of 100 is intriguing and the compressed view makes it easier to understand. I didn't quite get the whole point other than "tolerance." The full view might be more enlightening. I'm hoping more practical points are brought to bear to help us appreciate differences and diversity.
The narration was a bit slow for my taste and delivered by the actors with little or no expression. It was bland. It was also very stylized and "studio-ized."
Great message and concept. I would have preferred a delivery a little more realistic and with much more flavor.

The impact was really incredible! I would actually love to see this available to high schools across the United States and even further.
