About

A free film screening of Black Boys followed by a discussion on the film's themes and how a British audience can relate to them. The documentary illuminates the spectrum of black male humanity in America, an intimate, inter-generational exploration of Black identity and opportunity at the nexus of sports, education and criminal justice. Directed by Sonia Lowman, it is part of Black History Month.

8.2Very good

Critics praise the film's moving, candid interviews and its clear illumination of systemic racism, calling it heartfelt and insightful. Few faults are noted, though its disturbing footage of violence and its heavy subject matter may prove difficult for some viewers.
