C.S.A is an amazing movie made by one of our own jayhawkers, Kevin Willmott. It is a poignant mock-umentray following our country’s timeline if the confederates had won the war. There are interviews interspersed with old footage and fake commercials. The aspect that is truly shocking is the commercials for actual products and their frequently blatant racism. The film balances the weight of the issue with humor, all the while highlighting how far we are from exorcising our demons.
UPDATE 2/20: The website (and trailer) for Kevin Wilmott’s new film, Bunker Hill, is now live online. Check it out.
