The number is startling, but we also have to acknowledge that it shouldn’t be surprising.

The experiment was a simple one. Take two small girls and put them, apparently, by themselves in a large shopping area, looking lost and confused, and see who stops to help them.

I was lucky to see it at a screening at the Male Survivor conference in NYC. Kathy, the director, and three of the men that the film follows were there as well to speak about it.

I already bought my DVD, and have watched it several more times.
Thanks for sharing your experience Chris!
