30TH ANNUAL CUCALORUS FILM FESTIVAL
presents
Homegrown
FRI · NOVEMBER 22 · 2024 · 7:15 PM · THALIAN BLACK
Three right-wing activists—a newly politicized father-to-be in New Jersey, an Air Force veteran organizing conservatives in New York City, and a charismatic activist from Texas—crisscross the country in 2020, campaigning for Donald Trump and building a movement they hope will outlast him. When they become convinced that the election is stolen, they take their fight to the streets. The result is a chilling portrait of a growing movement pushing American democracy to the brink. Homegrown features enough frontline footage from January 6 to get your heart racing, but dives deeper to paint a disturbing portrait of our uncertain future. Michael Premo's short Water Warriors screened at Cucalorus in 2018.
