A world is shaken when a mother is confronted by the killing of her son.
WINNER – Audience Choice Award (Dallas Video Fest)
“In American Mother (which rightfully won the audience award tonight and was my favorite short at the event), a young African-American man is shot on the street by police during a riot, and while that tension is high enough, the film tightens on the spoken word soliloquy of the young man’s mother (played by Bianca Jones) as she speaks about his future. Angry, harshly lit and nightmarish in its disarming images, American Mother is a prescient exploration of our confusing and sad times. A world is shaken when a mother is confronted by the killing of her son.” – DallasFilmNow.Com
