In His Own Home

About This Movie

In His Own Home is a stark documentary that delves into the unsettling realities of police brutality directed at minorities. The film, helmed by the lesser-known Malini Schueller, has this raw, urgent feel that really sticks with you. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like a slow burn, which lets the horrifying anecdotes resonate deeply. The atmosphere is tense, almost claustrophobic at times, as it explores the overmilitarization of campuses. There’s this distinct blend of firsthand accounts and observational footage that’s quite striking. It doesn’t shy away from uncomfortable truths, which makes it a compelling watch for those interested in social issues. You get a sense of urgency throughout, making it more than just another documentary.
