Part verité essay, part political diary, 23 MILE is an experimental nonfiction film following Americans during cataclysmic events in the Midwestern swing state of Michigan throughout 2020-- including the plot to kidnap governor Whitmer-- painting a portrait of a populace that defies media stereotypes. A document of complex discourse, the film forces viewers to question their own assumptions about race, class, social status and geographical demographics, drawing a surprisingly hopeful human portrait against the foreboding backdrop of societal instability. 2024, 78 min (World Premiere: True/False, March 1-3)

23 MILE is part of a trilogy of nonfiction feature films about political collision in the United States, focusing on the filmmaker's home of Michigan as a site of study (experimental film Civil War Surveillance Poems in post-production, and Untitled 2024 Project, in pre-production.)
