Synopsis

New parents Jerry and Andrea have endured their fair share of discrimination growing up. They hope their new son can grow up identifying as something other than "other." This personal experimental documentary explores the question of racial identity from the parents of a multi-racial child.

OT: OUR TOWN
Directed by Scott Hamilton Kennedy
YEAR 1 FILM 8
Against all odds, the first theatrical production in over 20 years at Dominguez High School is going to be Thorton Wilder's American classic Our Town. The kids at this Compton school are about to experience more than a culture clash, as they embark on a rich journey and discover the educational and social value of theater. OT: Our Town tells the story of human spirit and its strength against the stereotypes holding them down. Where Thorton Wilder wrote about about little Grover's Corners, this documentary exemplifies how Our Town is every town. Our Town is Compton.
