A highly unique urban adventure story, “The Quarry” follows the journey of a courageous young boy who finds himself in trouble, while climbing up the hazardous face of a quarry where children often play despite the ‘No Climbing – By Order’ sign, warning of this danger.

The tense event leads to whole communities coming together as a rescue is mounted to save the boy from certain death, and which in the end, becomes a demonstration of a shared humanity able to transcend all racial and power divides for the sake of a child’s life.
