Description

The film follows two siblings and their best friend over two years as they navigate toward graduating from the last remaining public high school in a city divided by race and plagued by poverty.

While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications.
