Children from south suburban Park Forest called race relations in their hometown "utopian." Documentary filmmakers interviewed 70 current and former residents who grew up there to see if it was true. They found that despite some incidents of racism, virtually all of those kids said the racial harmony was real. They also discovered the town used social engineering, beginning in 1959 and continuing into the 1980s, to make it happen.

CAST: Authors Will Cooley and Greg Randall and former Park Forest residents Kim Thayil of the rock band Soundgarden, Craig Hodges formerly of the Chicago Bulls, and Victoria Baecher Wassmer, a former federal official who served under two presidents.

DIRECTOR: Phil Rockrohr
