Longshots (1994)
Directed by Maureen Marovitch, David Finch
Documentary · 46m
When Longshots premiered in 1994, the film was recognized as being at the forefront of a whole new movement of putting filmmaking into the hands of documentary subjects. The film careens through six unpredictable weeks in the lives of a group of street-kids, as they learn to make films in a video workshop. The streetwise subjects, ranging in age from 17 to 23 years old, are a challenging class: sometimes they don’t show up at all, and one has to be bailed out of jail. But they have a passion to create and tell stories. As they work at documenting their experiences on videotape, we discover their world and hidden dreams.
