- When it comes to storytelling, tales about young star-crossed lovers have been common throughout centuries. From Romeo & Juliet to Bonnie & Clyde, the combination of youth, folly, and dangerous mistakes is something everyone can connect with in one way or another. Young. Wild. Free. falls into the realm of this kind of storytelling.
The new film, directed by newcomer Thembi Banks, follows the story of Brandon Huffman, played by Algee Smith. Brandon is a teenager in high school who is doing what he can to support his mother and siblings. His mother, Janice Huffman, portrayed by Sanaa Lathan, is a single mother who has bipolar disorder and struggles with staying on her medication while working to support her family. Things are not easy for the family, as Algee’s younger siblings' father is involved in the unsavory side of life in Compton.
Brandon’s life is immediately changed when he meets Cassidy, played by Sierra Capri. Cassidy is a mercurial yet captivating girl his age who holds him at gunpoint during their first encounter at the corner store. She winds up stealing his heart rather than his money, and her reckless, carefree nature takes them down a dangerous path. Collider had the opportunity to speak with Algee, Sanaa, and Sierra about the film, as well as what is at the heart of Young. Wild. Free.’s story.
The film can be streamed on BET+.
