Jane and Finch Documentary

I saw this on CBC. If it wasn't filmed in high-definition (which was a very impressive feat all things considered) I think I would have struggled to hang on. It basically documents the lives of 2 misfits groing up in that area and one seems to get his life on track only after he knocks up a girl and the other destined to be a life-long screw up.
 
I just took a look at it. It actually covers three youths, one of which is a wanabee from a family that's doing quite well for itself.

It's interesting to watch this and then compare it to what qualifies as underprivledged in the US, etc. All of these youths live in nice, clean homes, have computers, etc...they may live in social housing but they aren't exactly lacking for the necessities of life.

I would've liked to see some more background info on the parents.

That's clearly what drives Freshy, but the other two are more complicated.
