American Fiction

AMERICAN FICTION is Cord Jefferson's hilarious directorial debut, which confronts our culture's obsessionwith reducing people to outrageous stereotypes. JeffreyWright stars as Monk, a frustrated novelist who's fed up with the establishment profiting from "Black"entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, Monk uses a pen name to write an outlandish "Black" book of his own, a book that propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain.
