“Finding the Gold Within is one of the best films I’ve ever seen about the challenges facing African-American males in our society.”
–Mark Phillips, 
Edutopia
“Extremely topical… at times inspiring and funny, at other times heartbreaking and disturbing, and always fascinating… some of the most frank discussions about what it means to be black in America that I have ever heard.” 
– Pete Crooks, Diablo Magazine

SYNOPSIS:

Finding the Gold Within follows six African American college students from Akron, Ohio for three and a half years. They have been mentored for seven years by the youth program Alchemy, Inc. and are well-equipped with self-confidence and critical thinking skills, ready to become the heroes within their own stories. The protagonists grow before our eyes, whether navigating racial provocations, or seeking support with friends, estranged fathers, and wise grandmothers. Each of them is hell-bent on disproving society's stereotypes and low expectations. What will their paths and trials look like? How will they follow their dreams?
