Hazing- PBS Independent Lens

Offical trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyHI2WgDGp8

2nd teaser:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LWhVtbI-z4

FEATURE | United States | 103 MINUTES | English |
HAZING
Drama, Sports

Weaving his own personal experience with hazing into larger narratives, director Byron Hurt posits the function, politics, and consequences of pledging rituals in the documentary Hazing. Hurt begins his focus on BGLOs (Black Greek Letter Organizations), but expands his scope as he navigates what necessitates these membership practices. Through a series of intimate interviews with victims' families, survivors, and his fellow fraternity brothers, Hurt and his subjects go past the provocative headlines into the dangerous and careless realities of hazing.

At times heartbreaking, Hurt is uniquely empathetic to those who fall victim to group-think, and extends this grace to the viewer. This project examines the intricacies of those who chose to engage in pledging culture, by engaging in a discussion of both the joys and perils of affiliations with exclusive groups. Taking a stark look at the psychological, societal, and historical components of hazing, Hurt sparks a captivating conversation around the anxieties and expectations of belonging—and what will be sacrificed to achieve it.--Shakira Refos

This looks interesting especially since its really looking at hazing broadly across different orgs, now I just need to figure out if it will air online or on my local PBS station. I will add this to my list of things to watch. I just enjoy documentaries in general.

PBS is pretty good with putting their shows online for free. I anticipate this one will be available after it airs.

OT but If you enjoy documentaries, PBS Frontline is an amazing way to spend a day bingeing on non garbage TV.

OT: frontline is the best! I’m just disappointed that over the past few years, the episodes have just focused on regurgitating the news. Or maybe I’m just at the point in my life where I cannot fathom watching a documentary on COVID or the election.

I hope he reported on hazing in other orgs(band, football, lacrosse, etc)., in addition to Greeks.

HA! That doesn't fit the narrative that's being pushed.

In the trailer they are going to go over hazing in the military, marching bands, and sports groups.

Really good documentary and I recommend everyone give it a watch.

I won't spoil but let's say the end really broke my heart.

I made it ten minutes into it and wanted to cry. Truly heart wrenching.

The player is being weird on my phone…any little thing I do makes it completely start over. I just gave up after a while but I’m going to try to watch the whole thing tomorrow.

I recorded the program on DVR last night and just finished watching. I think the documentary did a great job of being transparent, balanced and objective. The director didn't focus only on GLOs. One of the main story lines was the Florida A&M Band hazing death. The director also focused heavily on his own fraternity and his own participation in hazing others. He was truthful and sincere in his efforts.

The part of the film that got me was the adult son of Kristin High bursting into sobs of grief while his aunt was giving a speech about his mom.

Do watch the film if you have a chance.
