Viewing Notes
Second short film in the Oscar-Nominated Documentary Shorts package and probably the one that should win or at least should be seen by the most people. Another film that is quite ironic to watch in an auditorium full of mostly privileged white people.
I teared up a few times. Having spent some time in Little Rock none of this is surprising. I’m glad there are ppl like this trying to make a difference.
