Inherit the Earth

Part meditation, part lament, "Inherit the Earth" is a brief encounter with five young people living in Southwest Baltimore. Conceived as a micro-documentary exploring the experience of food insecurity among children in Baltimore’s inner city, this short film transcends its original intent, offering a quiet reflection on loss and resilience within the struggle of systemic poverty.
