This short film addresses the critical issue of gun violence in our communities, the choices being made by our youth to pick up firearms and the consequences thereof. Imagine if some of our youth choose a different path. What would it take? Who can help? And where do we begin? These are the questions that will be in the minds of viewers as the short film concludes. In the TalkBack immediately following the premiere screening, we will discuss the making of the film and address the community’s responsibility to help prevent our youth from making these life altering decisions. From parents, other family members, teachers, friends, faith leaders, neighbors, and to our youth themselves, we all have a role to play in preventing one more life from being lost to senseless gun violence.
