Our America 2002 DVDRip x264

In Chicago, the Afro-American teenager friends Lloyd Newman and LeAlan Jones win a contest promoted by the successful producer Dave Isay of NPR - National Public Radio - for a documentary about the daily life in the ghetto where they live. They prepare a documentary showing their routines, the life in their neighborhood, and it becomes controversial, with some negative reviews of important persons of their community. Nevertheless, they are awarded as the 1997 Chicago Citizen of the Year. Dave becomes a close friend of the boys and their families, and they decide to prepare another documentary about the death of Eric Morse, a young kid dropped from the 14th floor of a building in the compound by two other boys on 14 Nov 1994. They win the prestigious Peabody Award with their work.
