A Bronx filmmaker is tackling social issues in a new documentary. 
Marquis Martin's recently debut documentary "A Girl Can Dream" at the Bronx Documentary Center.
The movie follows former top model star Bre Scullark as she attempts to help underprivileged neighborhoods find their Zen through yoga.
Martin says growing up in the Bronx and wanting to pursue a career in the creative industry was a challenge.
Often, he says there were no tools available to help him but he managed to learn along the way.
"A Girl Can Dream" shows Scullark's attempt to bring resources to urban communities that don't have them.
