Charlottesville (2018x10)

Air date: Nov 20, 2018

CHARLOTTESVILLE, directed by Paul Tait Roberts, revisits the tragic events of Aug. 11 and 12, 2017 to grapple with the difficult question of how such hateful acts could have occurred in modern America. Now over a year since the violent white supremacists’ demonstrations, this gripping two-hour feature provides an in-depth examination of Charlottesville in the wake of shocking racial strife, religious bigotry, government blunders, and political equivocation. Through the use of first-hand accounts by victims and witnesses, the documentary explores harrowing accounts of each individual’s journey to overcoming the violence and terror that overtook Charlottesville last summer.
