Documentary
An unfinished Chantal Akerman film about the troubled youths and drug addicts going through rehabilitation in Yonkers. Myra Alfreds, who commissions the film, accompanies Akerman and Mangolte on the film shoot in Yonkers, a city of nearly 200,000 inhabitants in New-York State, just north of the Bronx. The images show the big window of the storefront serving as a reception center for street youth. The young people participate in a variety of full-time activities and undertake to stop taking drugs.
