Jean Renoir’s scathing critique of corrupt French society lays bare some ugly truths about a group of haut bourgeois acquaintances, newly restored in 4K.
“It was 1957 when I left Paris for Little Rock. It is 1980, and what has happened to all those people—children—I knew then? And what has happened to this country?” James Baldwin traverses the American South in this stunning documentary examining the specters of Jim Crow, 15 years after the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Featuring in-depth conversations between Baldwin and prominent Black figures Amiri Baraka, Reverend Fred Shuttlesworth, Chinua Achebe, and others, this biting documentary travelog, restored in vivid 4K, brilliantly charts the shape-shifting nature of racism in America.
