A film by Emmy award-winning director Andrew Cohn Heartland Int’l Film Festival Winner- Audience Award and Best Documentary New York Times: "A movie about large setbacks and small triumphs, and the grit that takes you from one to the other." Indianapolis has one of the lowest high school graduation rates in the country. Victims of circumstance and a broken system, Greg, Melissa, and Shynika are optimistic that with a second chance they don’t need to be on the wrong side of statistics. As each returns to high school in a quest for their diploma, the consequences of dropping out of high school and returning once older and life more complicated, are exposed. Nonetheless, their journey, fraught with the challenges of daily life and the broader systemic roadblocks faced by many low income Americans, provides hope and inspiration for a better life.
