"On Dec. 1, Netflix is releasing All The Empty Rooms, a short 33-minute documentary taking viewers inside the bedrooms of children killed in school shootings. No, it's not an easy watch by any means, but it looks like one of those pieces of art that might actually make a difference. On Nov. 14, Netflix released the trailer for All The Empty Rooms, which debuted at the 52nd Telluride Film Festival earlier this year."
"After Sandy Hook, Parkland, and so many other school shootings, I began to feel numb. As a parent of two little girls, it was hard to even let myself think about the possibilities. Then, last year, my phone rang. It was veteran CBS News Reporter Steve Hartman. In the late '90s, I was Steve's producer as he became nationally known for telling one-of-a-kind uplifting, good news stories. But it had been 25 years since we had spoken."
All The Empty Rooms is a 33-minute Netflix documentary that places viewers inside the bedrooms of children killed in school shootings. A CBS News reporter and a photographer travel to Uvalde, Texas; Santa Clarita, California; and Nashville, Tennessee to interview families who invited them into their children's rooms. Intimate interviews and photography document how these spaces now function as sites of memory and grief. The film aims to break public numbness and rekindle urgency to address gun violence by showing the human consequences of mass shootings. The short premiered at the Telluride Film Festival and releases on Netflix on Dec. 1.
