First Person

Synopsis:

First Person follows the lives of six Philadelphia public high school students who dream of attending college. Over the course of two years, First Person takes viewers inside these young people’s homes, neighborhoods, and schools for a guided tour of everything from Thanksgiving dinner to hustling odd jobs to becoming the first in the family to graduate high school.

Production on First Person will wrap in September 2006, and post-production is currently underway. Over the next year, we’ll be using the website to provide updates on the film’s progress to market and on the students’ progress towards their goals. When First Person reaches a screen near you in late 2007, be ready. Its not often that you get to walk for so long in someone else’s shoes along such an important road.
