About This Movie

Meanwhile (2025) is this fascinating exploration, it’s more than just a documentary. It plays with form, blending different styles—you're not just watching, you’re experiencing. The nonlinear narrative keeps you engaged, it’s almost like piecing together a puzzle. The artists involved—Jacqueline Woodson, Catherine Gund, and others—bring such rich perspectives, layering their voices with historical footage that hits hard. The themes of white supremacy and human connection are heavy, but the way it's presented feels intimate, almost conversational. It’s that rare piece that invites reflection and conversation long after viewing, and the pacing gives you space to breathe, even when the topics are challenging. There’s a rawness to it that feels honest and necessary.
