Storyline

Inspired by true events, 96 minutes is the story of four young lives slammed together in one shocking moment. The events of the night in inner city Atlanta, Georgia, unfold in real time as we inter-cut between a carjacking and the beginning of that day, following four separate kids - who they are, where they come from, and the seemingly innocuous decisions that lead them towards a life changing conclusion. With no adults to guide them, they're left on their own to try to survive not only this night, but the complex reality of the world they live in. Written by Anonymous

Tight thriller about four lost kids who have to find themselves through tragedy
25 March 2011 | by See all my reviews

This movie will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. It's a story full of heart and soul, but so true to life it will make you squirm in your seat. It is essentially a story of four kids lost in a world of mixed messages and misdirection who all come face to face with themselves in the worst of all possible circumstances. It's a hard edged look at something a lot of people think is in this country's past

  • a serious race/class divide that plagues us still today. The familiar
story lines are approached with a freshness that rings true to all of us who have been there, but doesn't over sentimentalize. I recommend this film to anyone who is willing to put themselves through a wild ride and wake up to the fact that a lot of the problems we thought we solved are more present than ever. This is truth.
