Meet Tiny, Rat, Dewayne, and a handful of other teenagers hanging on the streets of Seattle in the ’80s. They panhandle, turn tricks, fight, dumpster dive, and talk tough. And then filmmaker Martin Bell gets them to talk about their futures, and they dream about the riches, cars, homes, and regular families slipping further from their grasp every day. That’s just one astonishing aspect of one of the most affecting documentaries ever made. -Lee Gardner
