Description
Anthology Description:
Growing up in Regent Park is complicated. What should be a straightforward walk home goes terribly awry. Siblings clash – over culture, over family responsibilities, over bad choices. A vlogger finds his voice, and his friend loses his. Told through the eyes of youth from the community, The Regent Park Project opens the door to a world most people only see through the lens of stereotypes. Instead, we invite you into a community full of complexity, and friendship, love and fear, laughter and irony.
