Group Project!!

I've forced Crys and Meg to listen to a Vocaloid song, and now We are planning on making a live-action version of it. The song is 'Prisoner', sung by Kagamine Len. It is soooooo amazing!!! I'll post the song later (my ipod doesnt feel like cooperating with me). If you havent heard the song, you should look it up. Its is sooo... Well, amazing. If you dont know what it's about, I will tell you.
Prisoner is a song about a 14 year old boy in a concentration camp during the Holocaust. One day, he falls in love with the daughter of one of the men who works at the camp. The boy and the girl communicate by sending letters folded into paper airplanes over the fence to each other. This is the only thing that makes the boy happy, so he treasures every airplane he recieves from the girl. Eventually, the girl says that she has to leave him, he's crushed that his love has to leave, and even more crushed because she never comes back. One night while the boy is asleep, the nazis at the camp find his letters and tear them up right in front of his face, making him upset and furious. This results in him punching one of the nazis in the face. After that, the boy gets sent to the gas chamber to be put to death. The boy thinks back to the girl and begs God to let him see her one more time. As the poisonous gas is making its way through his system, he cries out that he at least wants to know the girls name. The song ends. And, when the song ends, a lot of people are in tears because that song is just that powerful. The girl's reply to the song just adds more to the story, like how she had to leave because she was deathly ill, and that her dad was the one to send the boy to the gas chamber, and that the girl also dies and they meet again in heaven. Happy ending to a sad story.
