(2005) Video, color, sound, 75 minutes

In Rockaway, three teenage girls stay up all night and wander city streets as a final celebration of their high school graduation. Through their conversations that night with denizens of the Rockaway section of Queens, NY, we learn about the challenges they face as residents of a place torn between the allure of the city and the tenuous comfort of the suburbs. A series of flashbacks reveals what has come before this night, and hints at what is to come for each of the three girls as they relinquish the last vestige of their collective childhood.
