"Twice Upon a Time in America" is a feature documentary inspired by an
unprecedented period in the recent history of the United States at the height of theCOVID-19 pandemic and the murder of George Floyd. Americans from all regions of the country were living in isolation and facing an acute and permanent change to the very structures of their social, domestic, and working lives. Two hundred people came
forward to share their vision of America during this time.
