Now, telling their own stories, and hearing the stories of others, a group of supposedly unteachable teens will discover the power of tolerance, reclaim their shattered lives and change their world. With electrifying performances from it's all-star cast, including Golden Globe Award winner* Patrick Dempsey (Grey's Anatomy) and recording star Mario, Freedom Writers is based on the acclaimed best-seller, The Freedom Writers Diary.
