US PREMIERE The spectre of the Confederacy stands high over Stone Mountain, Georgia, engraved in granite. The community lives in the shadow of a controversial carving, larger than a football field, of rebel leaders Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. Stone Mountain is shot with a vivid cinematic approach that captures intimate conversations of those for and against the Confederate iconography. From Oscar-winning executive producer Roger Ross Williams, this exploration of Georgia’s number one tourist attraction serves as a microcosm of America’s civic discourse. - Brandon Harrison
