Based
on a New
York Times
article,
Down For
Life depicts
a fateful
day in the
life of a
15-year-old
Latina gang
leader
‘Rascal’,
beautifully
portrayed by
first-time
actor
Jessica
Romero.
Leaving the
gang, Rascal
discovers,
is much more
difficult
than
joining. Her
situation is
further
complicated
by racial
tensions
between her
Latina gang
and a rival
black girl
gang, a
frequent
problem
today in Los
Angeles
schools.
Down For
Life
presents a
raw,
authentic
look at a
teenager’s
life in the
ghetto. It
was filmed
entirely on
location in
Los Angeles,
including at
Locke High
School where
the original
article and
real-life
story took
place.... |
