Description

Steven, who is around 25 Years old, has lived most of his life in Arizona after he lost his father at the attacks of 9/11.

Director Statement
I thought why not give the racism topic an untypical twist with letting two white guys talk about it.
I don’t want to glorify THE right answer to racism, but display that a lot of people don’t want to get into discussion with the people they call racists. These people who are afraid of foreigners or other minorities are not born like that. They learned to hate, and we learned to hate them, which is not solving the problem of hate.
That’s the point why I let the short end so abruptly. Because hating for a “good reason” is still hate.
