Kids
Shocking. Depraved. Sickening. And they're only Kids.
Directed by Larry Clark
Produced by The Guys Upstairs, Independent Pictures
A bleak, unflinching portrait of predatory adolescent behavior and moral vacancy in 1990s New York, designed to provoke and disturb.
A group of bored, disaffected New York City teenagers spend a day skating, smoking, drinking, partying, deflowering virgins, and getting into fights.
