Raising the Heights
Raising the Heights ★½ 1997 (R)
Tensions escalate in the Brooklyn neighbor of Crown Heights when a drug deal, involving a high school teacher, re sults in the death of a young girl.

Good in tentions can't quite make up for the amateur filmmaking. 86m/C VHS . Gilbert Brown Jr., John Knox, Fia Perera; D: Max Gottlieb; W: Max Gottlieb.
