Summary:
A guard at a teen correctional facility who saw the cycle of destructive choice and racial tensions between female teen offenders, decides to do something about it. He gathered African-American, Latina, and white teens, and put together a multi-racial track team behind the bars of the detention center. The experience of belonging to his track team not only broke down the racial divides between the young women, but transformed them, putting them on a path to change their lives.
