"Summertime" is a breathtaking trip through a day in L.A. (but is relatable anywhere you may be), it's raw, funny and most of all, inspiring. The entire movie was written by 27 talented Los Angeles young adult poets from the Get Lit program, who originally started the Get Lit program through their high school teachers. An exciting part of this film is that it too evolved into something to be shared and learned, in the form of FREE classroom curriculum available for educators everywhere.
