Quoting Arthur Pratt, WeOwnTV: Sierra Leone manager, "We the loose ends, the have nots, the people living in the gutters, the people who will never make it in life, we have come together to create our own family, to have own identity—to create our own space." Serving as inspiration, the footage represents a collection of standout quotes, interviews and creations from the young filmmakers that began to create their own space during the August 2009 WeOwnTV Intro to Filmmaking workshop.

This collection includes video diary entries from the young filmmakers reflecting on their memories of the war. It closes with a beautiful and thoughtful video diary entry by WeOwnTV In-country Manager Arthur Pratt (B-roll footage of practicing in the rain was shot by students). An intimate introduction to the participants of the August 2009 WeOwnTV workshop, this video is representative of stories from a broad range of young Sierra Leoneans.
