3 And 1/2 Minutes
On Black Friday 2012, four middle-class African-American law-abiding teenagers stopped at a gas station to buy gum and cigarettes. One of them, Jordan Davis, argued with Michael Dunn, a white man parked beside them, over the volume of music playing in their car.
The altercation turned to tragedy when Dunn fired 10 bullets at the unarmed boys, killing Davis almost instantly.
This seamlessly constructed, riveting documentary film explores the danger and subjectivity of Florida's Stand Your Ground self-defense laws by weaving Dunn's trial with a chorus of citizen and pundit opinions, and with Jordan Davis's parents' wrenching experiences in and out of the courtroom.
