Shooting For Change Regent Park is a neighbourhood in downtown Toronto infamous for violent gangs, poverty and drugs. While some of those things are present, most people living here are just regular folks trying to live their lives like anybody else.  But the danger for their children to become involved in less than savoury activities is certainly there. Enter Adonis Huggins, a man with a vision.  He’s running a unique media program called Regent Park Focus for the local kids that not only gives them a creative outlet, but it also allows them to define themselves to a world that is only too happy to slot them into negative categories. There’s Josneara, a young Muslim girl who’s making a film about the hijab – and deciding for herself whether or not she wants to wear one. There’s Nicholas, a boy who overcomes the negative effects of bullying by turning himself into a superhero in the film called BIKEMAN. Then there’s Tyrone.  While everyone around him was falling into gangs and becoming tragic victims of violence, Tyrone was making films.  Today, he works at Regent Park Focus teaching younger kids those same skills. Through the power of filmmaking, these youth are taking control of their lives and learning who they really are and where they come from.   Languages: English and Bengali
