"For its ability to make a complex historical issue both accessible and immediate, for its dedicated approach to its subject and the way it builds a coherent story from varied mediums. This film has the capacity to illuminate the ways in which many conflicts arise from our inability to truly see the other."

3rd place. Tied with No Home Movie (2015).

Special Mention goes to the documentary "I Am Not Your Negro" By Director Raoul Peck. Based on James Baldwin's unfinished manuscript 'Remember This House' and narrated by Oscar-nominated actor Samuel L. Jackson, the film explores the history of race relations in the United States through Baldwin's reminiscences of civil rights leaders Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr.. The film is both heartbreaking, powerful and vividly illustrates America's history of racism, injustice, violence, exploitation of Black Americans. This is truly a film we felt needed special recognition.
