Killer of Sheep
Aroview: A recently exhumed landmark of African-American cinema, dir. Burnett’s long-lost thesis film observes the daily hardships of an impoverished family in South Central L.A to justifiable acclaim. Raw, intimate, and surprisingly tender – a rarefied American indie shot through with humane, poetic realism.
