An American Story

A psychological roller-coaster of pure cinematic excellence. Harlan's piece is a deep and disturbing look at the all-to-real experience of police violence and terrorism that is the narrative of many black Americans. It is a film that you not only see but feel. From bearing witness to a mother's reaction at the loss of her child, to conversations with 'God', the viewer is taken back and forth between raw, gritty emotion and surreal dreamlike tragedy; ultimately leading them to re-examine questions of morality, faith, and justice.
