Fletcher Street synopsis:
In the heart of North Philadelphia, where violence and instability are a daily reality, the Fletcher Street Urban Riding Club offers something rare: a safe haven. Founded by Ellis “El-Dog” and now led by his son Darrin, the club uses the power of horses to teach kids discipline, compassion, and self-worth. At the center of the story are young riders like Aziyah, a recent high school graduate and the first in her family to attend college, and Nah'jeer "Chubbs" a quiet boy from a fractured home searching for connection and Ellis, who fears riding after a fall but finds peace in caring for the horses; For these kids, the bond with their horses becomes more than just a pastime, it’s a lifeline for building trust, discipline, and emotional resilience in a world where those things are often in short supply. Fletcher Street is a moving portrait of a community where love, mentorship, and horses come together to change lives- one child at a time.
