Homegrown

In the polarized American society, extremist groups are on the rise. This documentary portrays three Proud Boys, Trump's violent henchmen, who took part in the storm on the Capitol on January 6, 2021. We learn about their individual backgrounds and their different motives. Beyond anger, the three people portrayed have no common denominator. HOMEGROWN is an enlightening documentary that provides a disturbing insight into the milieu of the 21st century far-right in America. 'A harrowing portrait of Trump's Hells Angels. Since watching this movie, I can understand why experts are warning of a civil war after the presidential election of November 5.' – Christian Jungen
