STORY

(English)

A revealing and shocking documentary about police violence in the United States against blacks.

The documentary is based on the story of award-winning African-American journalist Joyce Davis, born in the early 1950s in New Orleans, as well as documents from official police records.

On the occasion of the George Floyd’s assassination, a period of 80 years unfolds in which the rhetoric of hatred and acts of uncontrollable violence against African-Americans prevail.

The documentary follows protesters on the streets of New York, Washington, Cleveland and other US cities and brings to light shocking evidence of the arrests and killings of African Americans in 2011-2020.
