Scene 1 : The Journey
Setting: The journey to celebrate
Passover. The group tried filming as they
walked through trees around the school
grounds. They discussed the Passover
feast and meeting family and friends. Unfortunately, the flip camera didn’t pick up the volume unless the voices were close so we tried again on the path up to the parish church.
