When Claude Got Shot

Cultures & Communities Festival

***FREE SCREENING!*** 
Screening sponsored by 

Part of the 2022 Cutlures & Communites Festival, presented by Kohl's!

When Claude Motley is shot while visiting Milwaukee for his high school reunion, he realizes there's no escaping gun violence and the ripples of trauma it causes. When he discovers his assailant was shot only two nights later by another attempted victim and is now paralyzed, it complicates thinking of any such crime as singular. Tracing this case through the criminal justice system, this Emmy-nominated local documentary asks how and if these cycles can be broken. This MFF21 encore screening is free and open to the public.

Screening to be followed by post-film panel!
