There has never been a show so brilliant in its ability to capture the idea of hope and fear. All humans strive to be hopeful of something, a sense of catharsis. Yet this incident strikes so poignantly. Mainly because the 5 main characters are striped of their hope; whether it be their hope to live, their hope to continue with society and the hope to be equal under the law. Ava DuVernay incredibly conveys such emotion and struggle through her brilliant camera work and score. I have never seen a movie that captured such emotion through its intense imagery. In the end the visual and auditory is all a film provides, yet a clever use of these two mediums can make anyone feel. Like a book that offers only emotion through the visual, film offers the exact same.
