Join Mark Duplass and filmmakers Davy Rothbart, Cheryl Sanford, and Akil Sanford for the Los Angeles Premiere of their critically acclaimed documentary 17 Blocks.

They’ve been filming ever since. Spanning two decades, 17 BLOCKS illuminates a nation’s ongoing crisis through one family’s raw, stirring, and deeply personal saga.
