The First Purge

“Witness the birth of an American tradition.”

Dmitri (Y'lan Noel) runs the streets of Staten Island and wants to keep his corner and his people safe while the government prepares its first experiment. For one night, the New Founding Fathers of America have declared all crime legal in this one isolated community, and Nya (Lex Scott Davis) watches her neighborhood brace for it. Gerard McMurray follows the night as it comes down on the block, the hours counting toward morning.
