Mudbound

Spike Lee-protegén Dee Rees har med detta mästerverk tidigt i sin regikarriär lyckats skapa ett fint ensembledrama om 40-talets rasrelationer i den djupaste södern (där hon själv är uppvuxen).

...a film set during a tumultuous period in history that has worrying parallels with current events. Something we’ve sadly heard too often in recent months.

...is at once sweeping epic and granular character study.

The film invites us to observe its characters, to hear their inner voices, to see what they see and to challenge our own preconceived notions about race and gender.
