The First Step
dir. Brandon Kramer, 2022
Not Rated – 1 hr. 30 mins.
OREGON PREMIERE
Features post-film panel discussion
In a divided America, progressive activist and political commentator Van Jones controversially works across party lines on landmark criminal justice reform and a more humane response to the addiction crisis. Attempting to be a bridge builder in a time of extreme polarization takes Van and a coalition of unlikely allies deep into the inner workings of a divisive administration, internal debates within both parties, and the lives of frontline activists fighting for their communities.
