DESCRIPTION:Free State Festival presents a virtual screening of the new short film\, Now What? followed by a Q&A with the creative team on Facebook LIVE. \nABOUT THE FILM: As social media floods with adult-driven information\, misinformation\, opinions\, and witness recorded killings; it begs the question – How are the youth digesting these times? Jamal experiences watching a Black man murdered for the first time. In result he grapples with what his identity means in a polarized society. \nNow What? was created in response to the turmoil felt as the world witnesses the habitual police killings of unarmed people of color. Created by Marcus Guider\, DeVonte Brown\, and La’Ron Cooper\, the short film explores the psychological effect that these murders have on children. As social media floods with adult-driven information\, misinformation\, opinions\, and witness recorded killings; it begs the question – How are the youth digesting these times?
