A murder that sent shockwaves through the nation after being captured on camera by his fellow passengers.Fruitvale Station premiered at the Sundance Film Festival where it won both the Grand Jury and Audience Prize. It appeared on numerous best-of lists including the National Board of Review and won many awards including awards for Coogler, Jordan and Spencer. It was hailed as a triumphant debut film with the consensus being that it’s "passionate and powerfully acted, [and] serves as a celebration of life, a condemnation of death, and a triumph for star Michael B. Jordan."
