City So Real

City So Real
A conflicting mayoral election coincides with the trial of a cop who killed Laquan McDonald. Chicago becomes a protestor’s hub with its citizens ready to blow up. This doc covers the differing perspectives voiced at family gatherings or street protests. From a candidate to a voter, a bystander and a protestor, all weigh in with their casual insights and passionate arguments.

An American city that stands out because of its racial diversity, its singularity represents the entire country as a unit. A place where issues of segregation affect everybody; there is a chance that someone who could never be a mayor before might get the chance.
