Rich Hill

Rich Hill, Missouri is one of the many countless small towns that blanket the American Midwest, but to teenagers Andrew, Harley and Appachey, it's home. As they ride their skateboards and go to football practice, they are like millions of other boys coming of age the world over. But faced with difficult circumstances – isolation instability, and parental unemployment – adolescence can be a daily struggle just to survive. Though they know how to act tough like they have nothing to lose, when you get to know them up-close, you see their insight, their humor, and their determination to survive. With no road map or role model, they cling to the hope that even they can live the American dream. (Zlín Film Festival)
