WHOSE STREETS?, 2017
USA | DCP, Color, 90’ | English
Director: Sabaah Folayan, Damon Davis
Whose Streets? is a dramatic documentary about the protests that took place in the town of Ferguson, St. Louis after a young unarmed black man was killed by a white cop, from the subjective viewpoint of activists and people who became activists. With all its starkness, the production portrays the emotions felt by people living in Ferguson during the period right after the tragedy, and their resistance, not for equal rights but for staying alive without sharing the viewpoints of the police and governmental agencies.
