Jeff Gandell's "Danger Unit"
Festival SOLOS Festival
Description:
In the mid-1980s, terrifying headlines dominate the news, from AIDS, to Satanic Daycare Sex Abusers, to Poisoned Painkillers. The situation seems hopeless, until one ten-year-old boy, armed with a vigilante group of friends and a firm belief in Hashem, fights back against a doomed and paralyzing future.
