Streaming video - 2018

Inspired by real-life events, this **Oscar**-winning short is set In a small supermarket in a blue collar town, a black man smiles at a 10 year old white boy across the checkout aisle. This innocuous moment sends two gangs into a ruthless war that ends with a shocking backlash. Winner of the 2019 **Academy Award** for Best Live Action Short Film. "*It's a narrow treatment of a now pressingly relevant subject, but one that still rewards as a powerful, well-acted tale of personal redemption.*" - Dennis Harvey, ***Variety***
