You Be The Judge (2014)

You Be the Judge was written for ESL Services using scenarios that they provided us to devise. The scenes were remounted for videos quality. While comments/questions for each vignettes are provided as conversation starters, we recognize that our audiences will also find other issues upon which to focus. What are yours?
