No Crossover: The Trial of Allen Iverson
På Valentinsdagen i 1993, bowlet basketballstjernen fra Bethel High School, Allen Iverson, i Hampton i Virginia med fem skolevenner. Det skulle være en vanlig kveld, men endte med å definere Iversons unge liv. En krangel førte snart til en slåsskamp og Iversons unge svarte venner slåss med en gruppe hvite gjester. Ettervirkningene av slåsskampen og hvordan den påfølgende rettssaken ble håndtert, gjorde at tenåringen - som noen mente var nasjonens beste high school-utøver - havnet i fengsel og delte byen langs raselinjene. Oscar-nominerte Steve James ("Hoop Dreams") drar tilbake til hjembyen Hampton der han pleide å spille basketball, for å ta en personlig titt på denne fortsatt omstridte hendelsen og undersøke virkningen den hadde på Iverson og samfunnet.

The Interrupters
The Interrupters tells the moving and surprising stories of three “violence interrupters” – two men and a woman – who with bravado, humility and even humor try to protect their Chicago communities from the violence they once employed. From acclaimed director Steve James and bestselling author Alex Kotlowitz, this film is an unusually intimate journey into the stubborn, persistence of violence in our cities. Shot over the course of a year, The Interrupters follows these individuals as they attempt to intervene in disputes before they turn violent: a family where two brothers threaten to shoot each other; an angry teenaged girl just home from prison; a young man on a warpath of a revenge. The film captures not only each interrupters’ work, but reveals their own inspired journeys from crime to hope and redemption.
