SOUTHEAST PREMIERE
In his delightful follow-up to Academy Award®-nominated The Garden (FFF 2009 Grand Jury Award & Audience Award for Best Documentary Feature), director Kennedy captures all of the drama, competition, heartbreak, humor, and triumph among a group of freshman and senior students at the Los Angeles County High School for the Performing Arts, also known as “Fame High.” One of the most competitive and respected public arts high schools in the country, the teachers are all working professionals and famous alumni include Josh Groban, Corbin Bleu, Jenna Elfman, Anthony Anderson, and Alvin Ailey principal dancer Matt Rushing. By focusing on an actor, a singer, a ballet dancer, and a pianist, this terrific and inspiring coming-of-age musical documentary shows us incredibly talented kids struggling to find their voice—not only in their art but in life—with the help of, and sometimes in spite of, their passionate and opinionated families.
