RaMell Ross "Chronicles the powerful friendship between two young Black teenagers navigating the harrowing trials of reform school together in Florida." - Letterboxd "Its ecstatic, first-person images of childhood experience might point to happy memories, or possibly free-floating sensory epiphanies for which happiness or unhappiness is not relevant – and time-lapse shots here of the night sky incidentally reminded me of Ross’s lovely 2018 documentary Hale County This Morning, This Evening." - Peter Bradshaw (The Guardian)  Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2qZ429rUZw   For information on available assistive content for WUD Film screenings, please visit the Assistive Movie Screenings in the Marquee Theater page .   This event is intended for UW-Madison students, faculty, staff, Wisconsin Union members and their guests.
