Synopsis
In 1983, photographer Mary Ellen Mark and journalist Cheryl McCall expanded their Life magazine expose about homeless teens on the streets of Seattle into this haunting and beautiful film, made in conjunction with filmmaker Martin Bell. The teenage subjects are fascinating, none more so than fourteen-year-old Tiny, who seems like an elemental force of endurance and will. Nominated for an Academy Award. On Sept 15th we screen TINY: THE LIFE OF ERIN BLACKWELL , a 2016 follow-up on STREETWISE’s subject.
