Preface: This is a torrent that I uploaded 2 years ago but I've got so many requests for it recently that I decided to up it again.
------------------------------------------------------

This is a work of art that should be in any serious collector's itinerary; nominated for an Oscar (and Gene Siskel himself said this should have won for that year).

Portrays the lives of nine desperate teenagers. Thrown too young into a seedy grown up world, these runaways and castaways survive, but just barely. Rat, the dumpster diver. Tiny, the teen prostitute. Shellie, the baby-faced blonde. DeWayne, the hustler. All old beyond their years. All underage survivors fighting for life and love on the streets of downtown Seattle.

I saw the first upload by Touchofgr3y and found the audio was kind of "buzzy" so I ripped my VHS copy. I found that his video source was actually better than mine, so I ended up syncing my audio to his video using Sony Vegas Video Pro 8.0. The result is what you will find here -- and though the video was untouched through the transfer, I think you'll find the audio is far worth the effort I put into it.

By the way, this currently holds an *8.1* rating on IMDB and is one of the most amazing "reality" docs ever made; IMHO it is the bar by which all others should be judged. This is a MUST SEE. Enjoy this almost lost work!
