ART CONNECT

TRINIDAD & TOBAGO | 2013 | 74 MINS #TFFTHROWBACK

At Trinidad and Tobago’s Success Laventille Secondary School, a group of seven “at risk” teenagers from the disenfranchised and volatile community are recruited for a series of dynamic workshops using mural art, music, poetry, and dance—opening their eyes to art’s power to uplift their community, family, and ultimately themselves. These young men and women are the narrators of this story, armed with Go-Pro cameras to expand their journeys of courage through moments of doubt and vulnerability.
