THE BOYS OF BARAKA
Boys of Baraka New York Premiere!
The Boys of Baraka is a groundbreaking documentary that follows a group of extraordinary 12 year-old boys who leave their homes and schools -- some of the most under funded schools and violent streets of Baltimore, Maryland -- to attend an experimental boarding school in the most rural corner of Kenya, East Africa.
The film is a real life triumph of the spirit and a profoundly moving portrait of African American boys surviving and striving in spite of insurmountable odds. THE BOYS OF BARAKA is an admirable work of cinematic art and social activism.
Screening at Film Forum: 209 West Houston St. (West of 6th Avenue)
