THE BACKYARD PHILLY PROJECT

The Backyard Philly Project delves into the lives of four teens growing up in Penn Town, an inner-city neighborhood, and how their involvement with Helping Hand Rescue Mission has given them hope for a better life through tutoring and other character-building activities aimed at the neighborhood's youth. Filming began in October 2011 and concluded in June 2012, and consists partly of video shot on individual cameras given to the teens.
