Starring: Gregory Turner, Billy Fox
Documentary concerning the destruction of a hard-won friendship and the circumstances surrounding the tragic death of a young man on the streets of Los Angeles. An impression of the resilience of a human being’s spirit despite the extreme condition of his circumstance. A portrayal of contradictions – wealth and poverty, corruption and purity, religion and commerce, black and white. A unique view, seen through a passed over talent’s eyes, into the grit and street level happenings of Downtown LA – city of dreams.
7th&Hill won a funding award at the Amdocs Film Festival Palm Springs after a screening to Oliver Stone, Joel Douglas and live audience followed by a director's Q&A.
The film is the second featuring Greg Turner and Billy Fox. Prequil “Underdog” (20min short) was acquired and broadcast by The Sundance Channel.
