In the 1990s, a group of high schoolers made a video project that ended up breaking real news. This inspirational documentary shows what happens when young people are trusted with cameras and told to look closely. A New York Times Critic’s Pick.
“High school journalists who put their professional counterparts to shame; environmental advocates who push back on polluters; an oddball teacher who leaves an enduring mark on his pupils: Teenage Wasteland has them all… But while Moss and McBaine have found an entertaining way of organizing the material, the real treasure trove here consists of the students’ own work.” — New York Times
