Now He's Out in Public and Everyone Can See

Overview

A riveting polyphonic documentary, Now He's Out in Public and Everyone Can See presents a fractured narrative about an unnamed man whose racial identity is continually redrawn and contested by clusters of impassioned narrators. This intricately-edited and deeply political essay film by artist Natalie Bookchin is composed of fragments of found online video diaries made in the early days of the Obama era, a period many believed would be 'post-racial' but instead ushered in a new era of racial discord.
