Behind the Screen: ‘Teenage Wasteland’

“Teenage Wasteland” is a coming-of-age story based on exclusive access to hundreds of hours of candid, humorous and nostalgic video outtakes, and the cooperation of Fred Isseks and his intrepid students as they reckon — thirty years later — with a defining event in their lives and a remarkable story of civic courage.

Join us at West Newton Cinema for a post-film discussion with teacher and star of the documentary, Fred Isseks, to discuss the film. Fred will be interviewed by Newton North’s Neil Giordano.
