FLAG DAY

Good, Clean Fun - 2m | Down and Dirty - 3m 1w

The second in a loose trilogy on race in America, Flag Day consists of two linked one- acts. In Good, Clean Fun two office workers (one white, one black) struggle with a capricious management which pits them against each other and puts pressure on their pent-up resentments both personal and racial. Though fictional, Down and Dirty derives from two real-life racial homicides.
