"The experience brought to us by the professionals whom we worked with unquestionably added 100% to the general worth of the project" - Student Quote "I would love to participate in a similar project like "First Degree" in the future as it was a wonderful experience. It took up a lot of time; but it was definitely worth it." - Student Quote "It was great to see all of the hard work turn into something so great." - Student Quote "After more than a year's work as a writer, I think that what has resulted from our hard work and stick-to-it attitude is great. I expected no more, in fact less from the outcome of the movie." - Student Quote    Between November 1996 and September 1997, eight eighth grade students (currently in grade nine) from the International School of Düsseldorf, Germany wrote the script for "First Degree". The work was completed between basketball and volleyball practices, before piano lessons, while baby-sitting, during weekends, over school holidays, before and after homework, and any other time that the student writers could squeeze in a scene or two. It is a direct result of their hard work and extended dedication to the project that "First Degree" has progressed from primary sources to prime time.
