Hello, from Group 2 is a film produced by a group of independent film producers at NYUAD. The film reconstructs the overarching theme of Internet and Connection linking individual videos together with sophisticated editing. Tackling complex issues such as Online classes and Zoom fatigues in surprising depth, the 4 directors create an honest depiction of NYUAD students surviving the 30 minutes of socially distanced anxiety and chaos, which should be praised for its insightful and moving nature.
