Killer of Sheep (1978) w/ Danielle A. Scruggs

"You are not a child anymore. You soon will be a goddam man."

Photographer and founder of Black Women Directors Danielle A. Scruggs joins us to tackle Charles Burnett's long locked-away neo-realist masterpiece Killer of Sheep. We'll tackle the film's impact, its influence, and the many, many layers hidden beneath its seemingly "slice of life" structure.
