About This Movie

So, 'Ser Grande' is this intimate documentary that peeks into the lives of three Puerto Rican teens, Juan, Rushian, and Ivianyd.

The pacing feels natural, almost like you're walking alongside them as they navigate personal challenges. It’s atmospheric, filled with moments of vulnerability and strength, as they interact with their mentors. You get a sense of the community's heartbeat through their experiences.
