Acclaimed filmmaker Ava DuVernay visits Sway In The Morning to promote her new film, ‘ORIGIN’, which hits theaters today. The film, both penned and directed by DuVernay, promises to be an intriguing exploration of history’s mysteries, the nuances of romance, and the fight for a better future.
‘ORIGIN’ delves into the global phenomenon of caste and its ominous influence on society. Through the journey of a journalist, who grapples with unthinkable personal loss while investigating this issue, the film uncovers the magnificence of human resilience. This biographical drama is not just a testament to DuVernay’s directorial prowess, but also offers an impactful commentary on societal norms and their effects.
The film finds its foundation in Isabel Wilkerson’s critically acclaimed book, ‘Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents’. Wilkerson’s work eloquently describes racism in the United States as an offshoot of a deeply entrenched caste system, providing the perfect canvas for DuVernay’s cinematic adaptation.
Don’t miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in this thought-provoking piece of cinema. Ava DuVernay’s ‘ORIGIN’ is a compelling watch, enriched by its layered narrative and profound insights into long-standing societal structures. It’s more than just a film; it’s an invitation to engage with, understand, and question the world around us.
