“The Nine” takes audiences to the ravaged community living on a barren, forgotten street in California’s Great Central Valley, with the film following Kiki, a broken dreamer who nevertheless maintains a vital optimism that helps her survive in this precarious place.

“The Nine” will make its New York Premiere at DOC NYC on Monday, November 14th.
