WONDER the Film #ChooseKindness Short Film Project

Description

Based on the New York Times bestseller, and starring Julia Roberts, Owen Wilson and Jacob Tremblay, WONDER tells the inspiring and heart-warming story of August Pullman. Born with facial differences that, up until now, have prevented him from going to a mainstream school, Auggie becomes the most unlikely of heroes when he enters the local fifth grade. As his family, his new classmates, and the larger community all struggle to discover their compassion and acceptance, Auggie’s extraordinary journey will unite them all and prove you can’t blend in when you were born to stand out…

Last month, Wattpad writers shared their 500-character short stories, telling of a time when kindness prevailed to encourage people to #ChooseKind and spread the message inherent in WONDER.

Now, Lionsgate and the WONDER team are turning to YOU to adapt these inspiring short stories into authentic and heartfelt Short Films (live action or animated!) to help create awareness and curiosity for WONDER the movie, arriving in theaters November 17th!
