Rich

Rich (1982)
Director: S. Torriano Berry
Year: 
1982
Format: 
16mm, b/w

On the day of his high school graduation, an African American youth battles for self-determination as a convergence of forces, including his family and the neighborhood gang where he lives, attempt to shuttle him toward a future of lowered expectations.  At once gritty and tender, the character study features an intimate scene shot chiaroscuro on location at the Watts Towers.
