Description

In a rapidly changing America where mass inequality and dwindling opportunity have devastated the Black working class, three Detroit men must fight to build something lasting for themselves and future generations. With the promise of education, safety and shelter in jeopardy, Deris commits to finish school, Luke works to rehab an abandoned home and Jack Rabbit takes a stand against crime and violence. Shot over three years in the neighborhoods of Detroit, Street Fighting Men is a modern American narrative; a story of hard work, faith and manhood in a community left to fend for itself.

Co-presented with Sffilm.
