Still Waters in a Storm

Still Waters in a Storm recounts the inspiring true story of a small, bilingual after-school program in Brooklyn where children of undocumented immigrants, guided by their former teacher Stephen Haff, find their voices through literacy and creative expression. The students, many living under the threat of deportation, collaborate on transforming the classic story of Don Quixote into a bilingual musical, highlighting themes of hope, resilience, and belonging. This heartfelt account showcases how a dedicated space for listening and learning can unlock extraordinary potential and empower marginalized voices.
