Kevin is a 15-year-old ex-street-gang member who lives in NDG. He was forced into the gangs at the age of 11 after moving to Montreal from the countryside. He is sick of the stereotypes that the media feeds us about street gangs and talks about what is really going on. Paul and Amy follow him into his room and through his neighbourhood and discover the frightening realities of youth violence on our streets.
