Synopsis

Through strikingly sensitive poetry and song, Rohan DaCosta contemplates the change of a place through the eyes of a changing person. Haunting street photography shows us the romantic realism of a neighborhood in flux, a community in crisis. Fires rage and tent cities rise. Themes of pride, resilience, and refuge are carefully braided throughout. THE EDGE OF FRUITVALE is at once documentary, autobiography, and fictional narrative.

Poetry. California Interest. African & African American Studies. Art.
