50 People, One Question, Different Answers

The Story: Around two months ago, when we set out to film, it was another New Orleans day. A sure sign was the radiating humidity, a kind that encourages an entire coating of sweaty film. Once you get past the initial fear of the inevitable grime and heat, you feel a certain energy or “atmosphere”. Like a kid throwing himself without reserve into a mud fight.
We had an idea: ask as many people as possible, the same question. We didn’t know exactly why, I guess we were hoping to expose a slice human emotion (maybe). Just the simple act of reaching out and asking the question, is such a enthralling experience in itself. So go ahead, ask yourself….

Yeeeeee on Facebook
That’s a very good question man! My answer – “to be in my country with my wife and daughter”.
Ok, I’m a full minute in and I haven’t heard the “question” at all. I haven’t even heard anyone say anything because the background music drowns everything else out. And I can’t even find out what said question is because the written blurb up above doesn’t elaborate, it tries to get you to watch the video to find out what the question is to begin with.
Maybe the music dies down later in the video and I can finally hear the initial question. But I’m certainly not going to watch it any longer to find out. Very poor work.
I liked it. Took a little too long to get to the question, but it was great. Refreshing even.
i haven’t cried in so long. thank you
Thanks for checking out the project!
Our studio is collaborating with Deltree to expand this project and produce new films in more cities. We shot this past weekend and will be releasing the new locations soon at Fifty People, One Question.
Check it out, and ask yourself the question…
OMG
The film is great!!!!
The question seems simple, but I’m sure that all those people were really impressed after their answers.
This video made me think about my life and what I want)
