Sorry, we don't have images or video for this item.

An award winning series of eight films, aimed at adolescents, dealing with violence, stress, divorce, step-parents, death, racism, conflict and political action. The issues are presented in an entertaining and direct manner, hopefully leading to empowerment rather than a feeling of hopelessness.
