Bobby walks home from school, along streets littered with drug users and gang-bangers. He resists the comforting call of the streets because he wants more from his life. Elena visits her sister, a teen-aged mother, whose life is so drastically different from the one Elena sees for herself. On the cusp of entering high school, they each struggle to keep their dreams alive, carefully avoiding the pitfalls that have claimed too many of their friends. The additional stress of an interracial relationship is the last thing either wants, but in each other, they find comfort and calm. Together, they discover they can keep on Keepin' On.
