            A coming-of-age independent drama that chronicles the life of Rome "Boston" Williams (Ralph Celestin), a young Black male from Boston, struggling with his identity and his ability to form real relationships in his new city of Philadelphia after a tragic accident takes the lives of his family.
Set on a Philadelphia University campus, Rome encounters Professor Balan, who challenges his freshmen class (Philly, G, Rye-Rye) to develop a deeper relationship with their "inner selves," along with connecting on a more personal level with their peers. As an incentive, Balan offers the shocking monetary reward of $50,000, pushing his students to explore their own broken, violent pasts and those of their peers in a way they never thought imaginable.
Carolina "Philly," a young Latino woman from Philadelphia (MIa Mendez), struggles with the demons of her past and her ability to trust and form new relationships the first year in college.
Ant (Shayne Witherspoon) and G (John Jameson), the young and brash childhood friends that represent the inner city youth of Philadelphia trying to make it out of the dangerous and harsh areas of the city. Ant more radical, G more peaceful.
Through an exploration of each others' histories, the group of diverse freshman slowly become a cohesive group, initially bonded by the chase of the cash reward, but glued by their shared fears, hopes, and dreams.
Both melodramatic and comedic, poignant and enlightening, through the personal journeys of the students, Boston2Philly reminds us all that sometimes the first step to true success comes from understanding who you were, who you are, and where you are going.
