| Summary |
It's not easy being a black cop. Your community doesn't trust you, your colleagues are wary of you, being patronized by the people you protect is constant. And when the world is on edge waiting for a grand jury verdict on a high profile police case involving unarmed youth, all eyes are on you. For one officer already struggling between duty and moral obligation, things take a drastic turn when he is profiled by his colleagues off-duty, pushing him over the edge. Armed with the power of his badge, an antagonizing radio show for company, and some good old fashioned rage, the stage is set for a whirlwind day filled with vendetta and just desserts, he targets the community he's sworn to protect. Nominated for Best Canadian Feature Film at the **Toronto International Film Festival**. Winner of Best Canadian First Feature Film at the **Vancouver International Film Festival.** *"Tilting between social satire and pitch-black drama with unnerving ease, Cory Bowles's feature debut BLACK COP is an intriguing high-wire act." - Barry Hertz, **Globe and Mail*** |
