WUD Film presents a screening of Nickel Boys (2024)!

USA | 140 min | PG-13 | BluRay | Dir. RaMell Ross

"Chronicles the powerful friendship between two young Black teenagers navigating the harrowing trials of reform school together in Florida." - Letterboxd

"Its ecstatic, first-person images of childhood experience might point to happy memories, or possibly free-floating sensory epiphanies for which happiness or unhappiness is not relevant – and time-lapse shots here of the night sky incidentally reminded me of Ross’s lovely 2018 documentary Hale County This Morning, This Evening." - Peter Bradshaw (The Guardian)
