Less Lethal

About This Movie

So, 'Less Lethal' dives into this raw slice of reality, capturing the chaos and desperation of the BLM protests in Austin. It centers on a tragic incident—this kid gets shot in the head with a less-lethal round, and the film takes you through the fallout. It’s not just about the violence, though; it’s about the hunt for truth. A tech guy, fed up with the city's silence, starts piecing together the footage, revealing the layers of neglect and brutality. The pacing is tense, almost investigative in feel, and the way they use real footage gives it an unsettling authenticity. It’s gritty, and you can feel the weight of every moment. A real eye-opener, showing how technology intersects with activism—a distinctive angle for a documentary.
