Students at Echo Glen High School, who are incarcerated at a children's prison in Snoqualmie, Washington, have been making short films about their lives. To protect their privacy you usually do not see the students' faces or hear their voices.

In "Walk One Mile," the youth came up with images to expand on a poem written by one of their fellow students. "Letter to God" is also based on student poem; in this one you see one of the youth, as she was old enough to choose to be filmed (she said there was already plenty of bad stuff about her out there, so she'd like to have some good stuff). In "Please Understand," the students were given whiteboards to say what they would like people to know about them. The animated "Reflecting Resilience" has interviews with the students.
