A City in the Forest
2026•18•1h 38m•Released
Documentary
When a private police foundation in Atlanta tries to raze an urban forest to build the country’s largest police training facility, a diverse, decentralized, and intersectional movement defends the forest from what they call “Cop City.” A City in the Forest paints a collective portrait of the country’s most urgent social justice story, where a web of activists fight back against environmental racism, political corruption, police violence, and the criminalization of dissent.
