Unapologetic

Ashley O'Shay follows two young Black women organisers in Chicago in the years after the police killings of Rekia Boyd and Laquan McDonald, as they push for accountability and an end to police violence. The film stays close to their work, their friendships and their exhaustion.

It's a film about leadership that rarely makes the news, the meetings, the public hearings and the care organisers give each other. It centres Black women and queer activists who are often doing the most work and getting the least attention.
