The film has this raw, gritty atmosphere that really pulls you in, capturing the urgency and passion of grassroots activism. It's not just about the events; it’s very much about the people and their struggles. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like a slow burn, allowing you to absorb every moment. Their journey culminates in the passage of Asheville’s reparations resolution, which is kind of a big deal in this context. The performances, while not scripted, carry a weight and sincerity that feels both personal and universal. It’s a distinct piece that resonates with today’s landscape of social justice issues.
