No Time to Lose

Average New Yorkers describe their childhood experiences as "carefree", and "lots of fun and games". But 40% of all Black children and 50% of all Hispanic children in New York City live below the national poverty line. In this moving documentary, seven children describe the day to day conditions behide these satistics. In their own words they describe their lives and dreams with intelligence and compassion. They demonstrate remarkable resilience despite the difficulties of everyday life in poverty.
