Rich Hill

About This Movie

Rich Hill is a raw and intimate documentary that pulls you into the lives of three young teens navigating a small, often overlooked town in Missouri. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the audience to breathe in the struggles and small joys of daily life in a community grappling with economic hardship. The film doesn't shy away from the gritty realities these kids face—absentee parents, poverty, and the weight of expectations. Yet, there’s this thread of resilience woven throughout their stories. The practical effects here are those unvarnished moments of real life. You see performances that are genuine, unfiltered, capturing the essence of youth in a place that feels both familiar and unique. It’s stark, but there's a heart beating quietly beneath the surface.
