About this film

Exploration of juvenile delinquency in San Francisco featuring interviews with teenagers from different racial and ethnic groups about their neighborhoods and gangs. The documentary offers community projects, such as the “Youth for Service” program, as a constructive way to draw teenagers back into the community. Ask Me, Don’t Tell Me is a revealing por­trayal of multicultural San Francisco through the eyes of disenfranchised residents. Note: Received first prize in the “Film as Communication” competition at the San Francisco International Film Festival in 1960.
