Charm City delivers a candid portrait of citizens, police, community advocates, and government officials on the frontlines during three years of unparalleled, escalating violence in Baltimore. The film highlights the positive actions undertaken by groups and individuals, optimistically offering humanity as common ground.

In an Oakland grappling with police brutality, pervasive racism and increasing gentrification, community organizers Anayvette Martinez and Marilyn Hollinquest form the Radical Monarchs, a lively and essential Girl Scouts alternative where young girls of color learn self-love, self-worth and in a world that offers precious little support.
