A fragmented portrait of a moment, a person, and a place, seen through the subjective memories of a young Black girl, Imani, and a rookie police officer, David, who both have wildly different recollections of the same fateful moment in a corner store that will leave their lives altered forever.
Direction
Koeyers crafts subjective space like memory itself—fractured, painful, alive.

Director
Robert-Jonathan Koeyers
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released amid 2020s reckoning with police violence, it joins a wave of Black animated shorts (Hair Love, Two Distant Strangers) using the medium's perceived 'softness' to weaponize audience comfort.
Koeyers studied at CalArts; this thesis film landed him at Pixar before he pivoted to independent work, suggesting even the industry recognized its formal mastery while flinching at its politics.
