More and more of these similar stores are coming to light that prevents the healing between victims of the police departments. As a result, riots and protests dominate the news as it affects the current Presidential election and local races.

For Blindfire, the indie film released coincidentally with current events as the film was made some time ago.

Here’s the official synopsis for Blindfire:

After Bishop learns of the victim’s innocence and is suddenly facing repercussions for his actions, he is forced to confront extremely difficult conversations with his partner as well as the family of the victim.
