This is Our Youth

In 1982, on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the wealthy, articulate pot-smoking teenagers who were small children in the ’60s have emerged as young adults in a country that has just resoundingly rejected everything they were brought up to believe in. In meticulous, hilarious, and agonizing detail, This is Our Youth follows forty-eight hours in the lives of three very lost souls in the big city at the dawn of the Regan Era. Funny, painful, and compassionate, This is Our Youth is a living snapshot of the moment between adolescence and adulthood.
