C-Rock
In the summer, boys leap from heights up to 110 feet into the Harlem River. It’s a dangerous rite of passage going back generations in the Bronx. In this festival favorite short documentary, kids stand struck with fear on the cliff’s edge while boys taunt from the water. Others dare to try higher jumping spots for more thrills and respect. Friends leap together for cheering crowds aboard passing Circle Line boats. Through this thrilling tradition, the boys are connected to each other and generations before them. But growing up means they have to leave C-Rock behind.
