"To love someone is to know what hurts them." -Kwesi Thomas

"Battleground" is this week's Staff Pick Premiere! Read more about it here: https://vimeo.com/blog/post/battleground-by-kwesi-thomas-and-mark-bone/

“BATTLEGROUND” is a short documentary film conceived by Kwesi Thomas & Mark Bone which came to life through conversations immediately following the death of George Floyd. It addresses the life long struggle and confusion that many black people face in silence when growing up. It is an intimate look into the subtle, often overlooked moments of racism and the ensuing vulnerabilities that linger for life and which can shape identity. This film will be Kwesi Thomas' directorial debut.
