Strong Island is Yance Ford’s emotional documentary on the life, death, and quest for justice for his brother, William’s 1992 murder in Long Island. A black 24-year-old teacher, William Ford was killed by Mark Reilly, a white 19-year-old mechanic. A deeply intimate and meditative film, Strong Island asks what one can do when the grief of loss is entwined with historical injustice, and how one grapples with the complicity of silence, which can bind a family in an imitation of life, and a nation with a false sense of justice.
As it gets a little colder it’s time to Netflix and CHILL.
