A Little Triumph

I think being an actor might be my future.

A Little Triumph was written and filmed between 4–6 July 2005 by students from Wellington East Girls' College.

In exploring the theme of inspirational people, PI Productions of Wellington East Girls' College, decided that inspiration doesn't always come from the most obvious people and places. PI Productions then set about scripting a drama that explored how adversity and challenging relationships can provide the impetus for personal growth and inspiration.

See in A Little Triumph how Sila is inspired to assert her independence and 'coming of age' when bullied by her older sister.
