A love letter to Black and Brown youth. SCHOOL is an intimate and meditative look into one full day at a Bronx Middle/High School.
Unfortunately, we live in a world where negative stereotypes surrounding Black and Brown youth in America are harmful, dangerous, and flat out untrue. This film is a protest to that very thought. With unprecedented access, we see Black and Brown youth in an environment most never get access to; being just as they are, free from reductive stereotypes.
In SCHOOL, we reflect on a vibrant past and look forward to a hopeful future, where kids are back to where they deserve to be.
