'Compton in C Minor' is a meditation on the gang capital of the world from a hometown girl's point of view. Frustrated by negative portrayals of the inner-city, director Ava DuVernay challenged herself to capture Compton in only two hours and present whatever she found.

The short documentary ends with an inspiring spectacle that will cause you to rethink your stereotypes of this community.
