NABJLA Screens "THE INSPECTION" from A24
NABJLA hosted an exclusive screening and Q&A with THE INSPECTION Writer/Director Elegance Bratton and Producers Effie T. Brown & Chester Algernal Gordon.
In Elegance Bratton’s deeply moving film inspired by his own story, a young, gay Black man, rejected by his mother and with few options for his future, decides to join the Marines, doing whatever it takes to succeed in a system that would cast him aside. But even as he battles deep-seated prejudice and the grueling routines of basic training, he finds unexpected camaraderie, strength, and support in this new community, giving him a hard-earned sense of belonging that will shape his identity and forever change his life.
