Rich Hill: ĺäĄ_WeĺäĄ_re Not Trash, WeĺäĄ_re Good Peopl
In this excerpt from the Independent Lens documentary Rich Hill, we are introduced to the small town of Rich Hill, its high school, and the three boys who are the center of the film: Andrew, Harley, and Appachey. All three of them have challenging home lives, with very little money, but as they show here, each are fiercely independent and haven’t given up hope.
