A group of Black filmmakers and actors are reenacting the board meeting of a community cinema. A letter of complaint has been addressed to the cinema. It revives the tensions about the appropriate behavior towards a group of Black men who occupies the lobby of the building during the day, while the cinema is showing a film about the situation of these undocumented workers. This letter is asking how the institution is really committed to social change beyond the films they screen?
