Synopsis

Rich Bower is a rising figure in the hip-hop scene, drawing attention from a wide audience, including Raven and her affluent, white high school peers. The increasing interest in Black culture among white teenagers captures the attention of documentary filmmaker Sam Donager, who partners with her husband, Terry, to document the phenomenon. Before achieving success as a rapper, Bower had a history as a gang member, and his past begins to resurface, affecting him and those connected to him.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 21

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
