Kids (1995) DVD

Kids (1995) is a gritty, controversial coming-of-age drama directed by Larry Clark and written by Harmony Korine. Set over the course of a single summer day in New York City, the film follows a group of unsupervised teenagers navigating a world of sex, drugs, and recklessness. The central character, Telly, is a 17-year-old boy obsessed with deflowering virgins under the misguided belief that it protects him from HIV. The film is raw and unflinching in its portrayal of youth culture, offering no moral resolution but instead a disturbing snapshot of urban adolescence. It sparked intense debate upon release and has since become a cult classic.
