[Fresh is] made with a subtle precision that suggests a Vermeer landscape of the ninth circle of hell.

The movie's two instincts are at complete odds with each other.

Baltimore Sun
Rating: 3/4 --
Sean Nelson is a quiet revelation as the title character, a child who actively participates in what he regards as the only game in town, yet consistently demonstrates more caution and smarts than his friends or relatives.

A gripping story of survival on the streets and survival of the soul.

Product Description:
In this critically-acclaimed action drama a street-wise 12-year-old boy devises a dangerous plan to rid his neighborhood of its two competing drug dealers and save his sister. Using the type of thought he learned from playing chess with his father, the kid plays the thugs off one another, makes sacrifices when necessary, and wins the game. Winner of the Filmmaker's Trophy at the Sundance Film Festival.
