Set against the crumbling landscape of Chicago’s battered south side, Ricki Stern and Annie Sundberg’s documentary chronicles the year-long journey of Grammy-winning rapper Che “Rhymefest” Smith, from homelessness and alcoholism to self-discovery and redemption, as he reunites with his homeless father in a quest to reclaim his neighborhood and discover his true self as a father and son. Martha Diaz, co-curator of the Made You Look series and founder and director of the Hip-Hop Education Center, will moderate the discussion following the film.
