“Reach Out” is all about finding community outside of your community. It follows a group of four girls coming from different ethnic backgrounds. They feel like they don’t fit into their culture but don’t know they all feel the same. They start to feel isolated and detached from each other. They don’t feel that they are good enough for their own community, let alone good enough to create a new one with the people they care about the most. This becomes resolved after one girl reaches out, disregarding their differing backgrounds, and shares her food. This small act helps all of them feel more connected and seen within their group.
