The Forgotten City dives deep into the fabric of Buffalo, New York, revealing the often obscured stories of race relations and the systemic issues tied to segregation and crime. The pacing feels organic, with a rawness that lets the interviews breathe, giving space for the subjects to share their lived experiences. There's an almost haunting atmosphere throughout, accentuated by real-life footage that makes you confront the uncomfortable truths. The performances, if you can call them that, are genuine—people speaking from their hearts rather than actors reciting lines. It's a distinct kind of documentary, one that avoids sensationalism and instead leans into the stark realities of its subjects, making you reflect long after it's over.
