"...Marx's unflinching documentary provides a real-life glimpse into the emotional turmoil of modern teenagers."    - NJ Star Ledger 

Boys to Men?

In this moving follow-up to the critically acclaimed Hoop Dreams, award-winning filmmaker Frederick Marx continues his exploration of the lives of ordinary young men and the extraordinary challenges they face. Boys to Men? trains its focus on the pressures and expectations faced by a diverse group of young males.

The DVD consists of four sections. The main program, Are You Listening? features several teenage boys from different ethnic, racial, and class backgrounds offering fascinating insights into their own experiences and the meaning of manhood in America. Three additional pieces - Spencer, Cisco, and Al-Tran - illuminate the lives of 15-year-old boys over a year as they navigate the daily challenges of school, family, and American society.
