Following a passion and seeing your dreams through can only come as the result of hard labor and dedication, as can be seen in this short film titled 'Caine's Arcade.' That realization has already been made by a nine year old boy with ambition and gusto.
Caine works in his dad's auto shop where he has built his own arcade out of cardboard. The clientele wasn't exactly existent, but that wasn't enough to deter him. Finally, a customer came across Caine's Arcade and was amazed by its ingenuity. Feeling that this needed to be shared, Nirvan Mullick (the first customer) organized a surprise flash mob on Hidden LA and turned the event into a small film.
Caine's Arcade has raised over $86,000 for the young entrepreneur's scholarship.
