The film examines the long-term consequences of COVID-19 pandemic policies, specifically focusing on the impact of prolonged school closures on children. Key themes of the documentary include:
Highlighting learning loss and the "learning gap" that students are now fighting to close.
Mental Health: Delving into the devastating effects of isolation and the recovery process for children's social and psychological well-being.
Personal Stories: Following adolescents and families across the United States to give a voice to those whose perspectives were largely absent from policy discussions.
Sey, a former USA Gymnastics National Champion and former Global Brand President of Levi Strauss & Co., became a prominent advocate for keeping schools open during the pandemic, a stance that eventually led to her departure from the company. She co-directed the film with Andrew James.
