Black and White
“What happens when you mix it up?”
Drama
Rich Bower is an up-and-coming star in the hip-hop world. Everyone wants to be around him, including Raven and her fellow upper-class white high school friends. The growing appeal of black culture among white teens fascinates documentary filmmaker Sam Donager, who sets out to chronicle it with her husband, Terry. But before Bower was a rapper, he was a gangster, and his criminal past comes back to haunt him and all those around him.
VIBE
This film feels like a raw, unflinching look at the collision of cultures and the inescapable pull of the past. It's a gritty, introspective drama that explores identity and class with a steady, observational style.
