The feature length documentary STOP follows three years in the life of David Ourlicht, one of the plaintiffs in Floyd v. City of New York, the class action lawsuit that challenged the New York Police Department’s practice of Stop & Frisk. By interweaving the story of David’s family with the action around the trial, STOP places the controversy surrounding Stop & Frisk in the context of a long history of civil rights and policing in New York City. (2014) 90 minutes. www.stopthefilm.org
