ABOUT THE FILMS:
TILL, 2022, Chinonye Chukwu, 130 Minutes, United Artists Releasing, USA
TILL is a profoundly emotional film following the true story of Mamie Till-Mobley and her relentless pursuit of justice for her 14-year-old son, Emmett Till, who was lynched while visiting his cousins in Mississippi in 1955. In Mamie’s poignant journey of grief turned to action, we see the universal power of a mother’s ability to change the world.
FORMAT: DCP
CLEMENCY, 2019, Chinonye Chukwu, 113 Minutes, Neon, USA
Based off the widely protested execution of Troy Davis, Chinonye Chukwu’s CLEMENCY follows long-time prison warden Bernadine Williams (Alfre Woodard) as she prepares to execute another inmate. Haunted by memories of a recently botched execution, she must confront the psychological and emotional demons her job creates, which ultimately connect her to the man she is sanctioned to kill.
