Kids + Money

A film by Lauren Greenfield

Money talks

Money talks. Teens in Los Angeles discuss money: getting it, spending it and learning to live without it.

An original short film by award-winning filmmaker and photographer Lauren Greenfield, Kids + Money is a conversation with young people from diverse Los Angeles communities about the role of money in their lives. From rich to poor, Pacific Palisades to East L.A., kids address how they are shaped by a culture of consumerism.
