In the summer of 2020, amid a global pandemic and political unrest, demonstrations erupted worldwide following the murder of George Floyd. Portland became the focus of media attention for its intense, prolonged demonstrations against systemic racism and police brutality. Oregon's racist roots set the stage for Portland to become a central battleground for leftist activists and far right extremist groups, and a training ground for violence that culminated in the January 6th U.S. capitol attack.
Tipping Point reaches for a deeper, depoliticized look at Portland's headline-making reckoning. Through never-before-seen footage and exclusive interviews with Portlanders on the ground, Tipping Point humanizes their struggle while allowing Portland’s story to serve as a mirror for all of America – the past that brought us here and the future we must choose.
