23 Mile

Part verité essay, part political diary, 23 Mile is an experimental nonfiction film following Americans during cataclysmic events in the Midwestern swing state of Michigan throughout 2020 – including the plot to kidnap governor Whitmer – painting a portrait of a populace that defies media stereotypes. A document of complex discourse, the film forces viewers to question their own assumptions about race, class, social status and geographical demographics, drawing a surprisingly hopeful human portrait against the foreboding backdrop of societal instability.

Cinemapolis:  6pm, Friday April 5    - filmmaker Mitch McCabe will be in person for q&a led by Cathy Crane
