Activist Brittany Chrishawn Moore is sharing her harrowing and powerful story in a captivating new documentary, Unbroken Smile. The film delves into Moore's journey for justice after a terrible encounter with law enforcement officers that resulted in her teeth being broken and an attempt to frame her for a crime she did not commit. Through a combination of footage from Moore's previous film, "Illville," and raw bodycam footage of the actual incident involving the police, the documentary provides a gripping and honest portrayal of what happened. This is further enhanced by interviews, news broadcasts, courtroom audio, visuals from protests, and personal home videos, including intimate art therapy sessions with Moore herself.
In order to complete this important project, Moore has launched a Kickstarter campaign. The campaign page explains that Unbroken Smile not only sheds light on Moore's personal experience, but also serves as an educational tool for the public on navigating a justice system that is plagued with inequalities. As a brave woman who exposed cases of sexual misconduct by police officers, leading to the arrest of one cop for soliciting minors, Moore hopes to offer guidance to others who may face similar injustices, including how to obtain bodycam footage properly.
The documentary does not shy away from presenting the disturbing events that took place in May 2020, when Moore was at risk of being imprisoned for up to 10 years on false charges of battery against an officer. Despite suffering permanent nerve damage from the violent arrest, Moore's determination and persistence paid off as footage of the incident went viral, revealing the horrifying abuses she endured after simply asking an officer to leave her property.
"This documentary tells the story of a young woman who bravely fought against corrupt cops who not only broke her teeth but also tried to frame her," states the Kickstarter campaign. "Her fight for justice uncovered shocking secrets within the police department, leading to the arrest of one officer for soliciting children online. This is the inspiring and powerful story of Brittany Chrishawn."
Alongside Moore's own personal account, the documentary will feature a range of prominent voices, including rapper T.I., Florida Representative Angela Nixon, and music executive Jason Flom. With the main filming completed, the Kickstarter funds will enable the crucial post-production work of editing and finalizing "Unbroken Smile."
In a similar vein, a Mississippi woman has filed a lawsuit against the police after being shot in the head. This serves as a grim reminder of the ongoing issues surrounding police brutality and the urgent need for accountability and reform. Through her documentary, Moore hopes to not only raise awareness but also provide a platform for change and justice.
