A short film by an aspiring student filmmaker from Laney College Sandra Smith. "The Sealed Letter" is the story of a decent, studious young man who is reaching a breaking point in his life due to the routine negativity of his West Oakland home. When he receives an envelope addressed to him from a prospective college, he realizes he is teetering on the edge of a big change in his life and attitude.
