Recently nominated for the Best Documentary Feature Oscar, Hale County This Morning, This Evening looks at the lives of two young African American men from rural Alabama over the course of five years. One attends college while the other becomes a father. The audience is invited to experience the mundane and monumental; birth and death; the quotidian and the sublime. These moments combine to communicate the region’s deep culture and provide glimpses of the complex ways the African American community’s collective image is integrated into America’s visual imagination.
Presented in partnership with Gimli Film Festival.
