Plot Synopsis

When We Were Bullies‘s plot synopsis: “When We Were Bullies begins with a mind boggling coincidence from 25 years ago, which ultimately leads filmmaker Jay Rosenblatt to track down his fifth grade class to see what they remember from a bullying incident that occurred 50 years ago. Weaving together a collage of archival material, found footage, stop-motion animation and interviews with classmates & a teacher from the time, the film is a highly personal look back at a Brooklyn schoolyard incident that had been obscured by the elusive nature of memory but resonated for decades. In a playful yet poignant reflection, Jay begins to understand his complicity, his sense of shame and the shared nature of such incidents and their aftermath.”
