The subject matter: political violence
Film:
Homegrown
Homegrown is an unflinching chronicle of Americans at war with each other. 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 the summer of 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.
Subject Matter participated in screenings of Homegrown at the 2024 DOC NYC Film Festival. Homegrown received a $20,000 grant to reach more audiences and support their impact, outreach, and distribution efforts.
