Do Not Resist
Opening on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri as the community grapples with the death of Michael Brown, ‘Do Not Resist’, the directorial debut of ‘Detropia’ cinematographer Craig Atkinson, offers a searing look at the current state of policing in America and a glimpse into its future. The Tribeca Film Festival winner for Best Documentary puts viewers in the center of the action, from a ride-along with a South Carolina SWAT team and inside a police training seminar that teaches the importance of “righteous violence” to the floor of a congressional hearing on the proliferation of military equipment in small-town police departments, before exploring where controversial new technologies, including predictive-policing algorithms, could lead the field next.
