Trailer

It is the end of the year. The students of a Bronx high school are on their last bus ride home before the summer. The group of loud, rambunctious teenagers progressively changes along the route. Relationships become more intimate and the hidden sides of their personalities are revealed... Crossing the Bronx, from Yankee Stadium to the East River, The We and The I is a clever, vibrant, offbeat exercise in style, the portrait of American youth fed on fast-food and web 2.0 culture, played by remarkable amateur actors. "When the masks come off, melancholy pervades the hearts and the screen." Christophe Narbonne (Le Monde)
