Pass Over — official trailer

What is Pass Over about?

Moses and Kitch, two young black men, chat their way through a long, aimless day on a Chicago street corner. Periodically ducking bullets and managing visits from a genial but ominous stranger and an overtly hostile police officer, Moses and Kitch rely on their poetic, funny, at times profane banter to get them through a day that is a hopeless retread of every other day, even as they continue to dream of their deliverance.

Pass Over is a 2018 American drama film directed by Spike Lee, and starring Jon Michael Hill, Julian Parker, Ryan Hallahan and Blake DeLong. It is a performance of the play of the same name by Antoinette Nwandu, which takes inspiration from Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot and the Book of Exodus. It was directed for the stage by Danya Taymor, and filmed by Spike Lee.
