So auch die der beiden 14-jährigen Chicagoer Jungen William Gates und Arthur Agee, die gerne denselben Weg beschreiten würden wie Isiah Thomas. Aufgewachsen auf der Chicagoer West Side, spielte er Basketball für die St. Joseph High School und landete später in der NBA.

The streetwise subjects, ranging in age from 17 to 23 years old, are a challenging class: sometimes they don’t show up at all, and one has to be bailed out of jail. But they have a passion to create and tell stories. As they work at documenting their experiences on videotape, we discover their world and hidden dreams.

Instead of losing weight, Rick gains valuable insight, transformative new friendships, and a profound sense of self-confidence.

Regie: Jeffrey McKay
