a boy’s anger grows beyond containment.
MARCH 29 – APRIL 21

Deeply affected by recent killings of young black men like himself, Ruffrino, a 14-year-old “militant,” incites riots at school and online. More and more at odds with his mother and grandfather, the boy’s anger grows beyond containment while the family home literally sinks into a cotton field and no one seems to notice but him.
