FIHuge congratulations to Joshua Seftel (Alum ’00, ’01, ’02, ’14) on his Academy Award nomination for ALL THE EMPTY ROOMS — Nominated for Documentary Short Film at the Oscars.
In this deeply affecting film, Joshua shifts the conversation around gun violence away from politics and toward something undeniably human: the empty bedrooms, the silence, the children who are not coming home.
As Steve Hartman shares in the piece, “What we need to talk about is the child that’s not here anymore.”
“Our hope is that this film can reframe gun violence not as a political issue but as a deeply human issue where every single person can agree on one thing: Our children deserve to be safe in school.” ~ Joshua
ALL THE EMPTY ROOMS asks us to witness — to stand in those spaces, to feel what’s been lost, and to remember that storytelling can move us toward empathy, responsibility, and change.
Your support will help even more people feel the impact of Dominic, Hallie, Jackie, and Gracie’s stories. Congratulations, Joshua and team, on this powerful and necessary work 🙌❤️
