Synopsis:
Playground is an experimental documentary which explores the ways in which three New York City teenagers creatively make the most of limited resources in their urban environment. By watching and listening to Rio, a skateboarder, Ashley, a basketball player, and Alex, a break dancer, we get to see a timeless part of New York that often gets overlooked: the pleasure, fun, and devotion that ordinary kids manage to find simply through playing, despite the challenges of growing up in the city.
