“Video has provided them with the motivation and the reason to stay in school and graduate. Some earn scholarships…”
We see some of the students work including clips of Prostitutes of Forsyth Street, 2371 Second Avenue An East Harlem Story, Drugs on the lower east side and other stories from the big apple. After these scenes of New York City we hear from the future videographers themselves on how the program has helped in their lives.
