Micci Toliver

A retelling of the events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, based on the idea that he was a black man whose death was a racially motivated hate crime.

It follows a young man's desperate search for spiritual redemption on the streets. A provocative character study, the film spirals through gritty urban neo-realism, then into haunting surreal imagery that evokes the loss of innocence and vulnerable sexuality.
