An in-depth look at the prison system in the United States and how it reveals the nation's history of racial inequality.
These foreign films share the same emotional core, themes, and structural feel as 13th. Every one of them has confirmed English subtitles or dubbing.
What ties these together is grief, injustice, and feeling powerless. They share the same lens on life under oppression, corrupt institutions, and class and money. The feel is the same: bleak, haunting, escalating, and methodical.
Both films sit with grief, injustice, and rage. Both circle the same ground: corrupt institutions, life under oppression, and poverty. Both move the same way too, bleak, haunting, and escalating.
Like 13th, this one is rooted in grief and figuring out who you are. The world both films live in revolves around corrupt institutions and family wounds passed down. Same energy: haunting, cold and detached, escalating, and methodical.
