Synopsis:
After a difficult childhood drives him into the grasps of a white supremacist gang, Bryon (Jamie Bell, delivering a visceral, explosive performance) tries to escape to a new life, all the while questioning whether he’s capable of undoing – and repenting for – the evil he’s done. Guy Nattiv makes his English-language feature debut with this galvanizing story of transformation, inspired by actual events. His short film, Skin, won the 2018 Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film.
