Filmmaker Spotlight: Jordan Peele - US
Advertisement
🎬 Join us for a chilling screening of Jordan Peele’s second horror tour de force US, followed by a compelling post-film discussion led by Dr. Brandon Ogbunu.
Dr. Ogbunu is an Associate Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Yale and a computational biologist whose research investigates complex problems in epidemiology, genetics, evolution, and society. As the founding director of the Yale Initiative for Science and Society, he runs a parallel research program at the intersection of science, society, and culture.
We will also host special guest Truth Powell, a senior at Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts. Truth has a background in theater, poetry, music, and photography and brings a passion for activism and creativity to his writing and short filmmaking. Inspired by storytellers like Jordan Peele, his work explores themes of revolution and social awareness. Truth also participated in RAW's Eye on Video program this summer as a student apprentice.

US follows Adelaide Wilson and her family as they return to the beach house where she grew up - only to be confronted by ominous doppelgängers mirroring their own faces, forcing them into a violent fight for survival. When the masks come off, the attackers shockingly reveal they are the family's doubles.
