A Community Trapped in a Kafkaesque Nightmare: American Violet
Just came back from a sneak preview of the based-on-way-too-real-and-common-events film American Violet. Here's the trailer:
Like Milk, it's the kind of film where you leave the theatre wanting to march in the streets.
This movie looks amazing! There's so many clips on the website, it looks so good!
PBS has a documentary about the original story, and they have the whole thing available online: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/plea/view/
