Fading Smile documents what growing up in New York authentically looks like through a decade long survey of a community of kids whose lives and experiences are unavoidably interwoven, creating a universe where everybody seems to be one degree of separation from ruining someone else’s life. Escape into a raw portrait of a world where everybody sells drugs, writes graffiti, cheats on one another and cheats the system. It’s a portrait of mistakes and memory.
The stories of the characters who define these images reflect the social fabric of the city and its true and rough, yet nurturing nature.
