ABOUT THE FILM: Childhood friends, Fonny (Stephan James) and Tish (KiKi Layne) fall in love as adults, but as soon as they start their family, Fonny is arrested and convicted for a crime he didn’t commit. Seeking to clear his name before their baby is born, Tish navigates a cruel and unforgiving racist world that tests the relationships around them. Filmmaker Barry Jenkins’ deeply soulful adaptation of James Baldwin’s penultimate novel focuses on the emotional currents and precious but fraying bonds of family and community in opposition to the carceral state.
