Synopsis
The Boys of Baraka is a coming-of-age story that follows a group of 12-year-old boys from the most violent ghettos of Baltimore to an experimental boarding school in rural Kenya.
Shot over three years, the film zeroes in on a group of brave kids who are willing to cross the ocean to chase an opportunity and fight the lable of "throw-away."
