Over 17 months, we see their highs and lows, their wins and losses, and the courage it takes to keep going when things get tough.
Filmed by Academy Award winner Cynthia Wade and award-winning director Cheryl Miller Houser, this film gives us a front-row seat to the raw, honest journey of young entrepreneurs trying to make it in a tough city. But it’s about more than just business—it’s about believing in yourself, rebuilding a city, and bringing new ideas to life.
At a time when fewer people are starting businesses, Generation Startup reminds us why entrepreneurship matters. It’s a call to action for a new generation to take risks, solve problems, and shape the future.

Watched this docu back in 2016 as a teenager. Wish you'd prioritize creating new documentaries instead of re-uploading old ones.
