They write apologies on the walls in case the previous occupants ever return.[12] Steve Dollar, who saw the documentary at Camden, commented in Filmmaker that "the story is as quietly heartbreaking as it is hopeful in the childrens' zest not only to abide but to transform the damaged world around them".[13] The film was selected for the national competition at Cinema Verite,[14] and was shown at the Olympia film festival in Greece.[15]
