While the film takes place in the age of America’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, Don’t Pursue” policy, which directed that applicants to the military not be asked about sexual orientation, homophobia is deeply entrenched in all aspects of service, from bootcamp to battle. Once enlisted, French struggles to conceal his sexual identity—as well as his invading attraction to his drill instructor (Raúl Castillo)—while under the watchful eye of the belligerent and hard-lining unit commander (Bokeem Woodbine).\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>THE INSPECTION is writer-director Elegance Bratton’s retelling of his own incredible story. After being kicked out of his mother’s New Jersey home at the age of 16 for being gay and subsequently living in housing precarity for a decade, he joined the Marines, where he served as a combat cameraman. His exceptional crew is flanked by veteran producer Effie T. Brown (DEAR WHITE PEOPLE, REAL WOMEN HAVE CURVES) and director of photography Lachlan Milne (HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE, MINARI, \u003Ci>Stranger Things\u003C/i>), as well as Broadway theatre performer Pope (an Emmy and Tony nominee who also held the role of Jackie Wilson in Regina King’s ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI), who portrays French with exquisite aplomb. Bratton’s powerful fiction debut is a heartfelt love letter to survival and staying true to oneself despite adversity on all fronts.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>—Dorota Lech, Toronto International Film Festival guide\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ci>Screening Supported by \u003Ca href=\"https://www.roxfilmfest.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Roxbury International Film Festival\u003C/a> & \u003Ca href=\"https://www.wickedqueer.org\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wicked Queer: Boston’s LGBTQ+ Film Festival\u003C/a>\u003C/i>\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/wSeprzQM6gk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\">\u003C/iframe>\u003C/p>\n",95,"In Elegance Bratton’s deeply moving film inspired by his own story, a young, gay Black man is rejected by his mother and has few options for his future.
