"Why are we the only people in this country that are expected to do things without violence?" Vertical Ent. has released an official trailer for American Skin, a new film written & directed by Nate Parker (of The Birth of a Nation). After a controversy surrounding his behavior, Parker quietly went out and filmed this feature and brought it to the Venice Film Festival last year. It will now open on VOD in January coming up soon. A Spike Lee presentation, from director Nate Parker, American Skin is a story about an Iraq War Vet named Lincoln 'Linc' Jefferson who decides to take matters into his own hands when his son is killed by a police officer. He decides to take over a police station and hold a trial right there in hopes of getting justice for his son's murder. This stars Omari Hardwick, Theo Rossi, Beau Knapp, AnnaLynne McCord, and Nate Parker. I actually saw this in Venice and it's solid; a provocative, thought-provoking drama that is meant to make us ask tough questions and wonder if we're really working to make the world safer or not. ›››
