Film Description

Two filmmakers spent a year living in a multicultural, co-ed dormitory at Stanford University. Frosh, their exciting cinema verite record of that year, offers insight into the cultural clashes and personal crises of students during a period of unprecedented change in American higher education. The film highlights such key issues as maintaining ethnic identity on a predominantly white campus, Eurocentric versus multicultural curricula and minority student retention. It documents students' difficult search for personal identity within an increasingly diverse student population. Nothing less than a contemporary American coming of age story, Frosh is destined to become a classic study of student life in the Nineties.
