 Carver Court is a housing project in Orlando, Florida, and home to more than 200 families. As in most communities, a gulf existed between Carver Court s youth and its elders, many of whom had lived there more than fifty years. To help bridge that gap, local teenagers decided to collect the remarkable stories of Carver Court s seniors: Mr. Lockhart s lifetime in the circus; Mrs. Siplin s memories of racial strife in depression-era Mississippi and Mr. Danner s harrowing experiences in a segregated Army unit during the Korean War. This film is a record of those histories, and of the bonds formed in their telling.
