After undercover police detective Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) pretends to be a white man he realizes he made a grave mistake — he used his real name. Determined to expose a hateful group, Ron proposes a dangerous investigation to the Colorado Springs Police Department: Ron will continue to pose as a white man over the phone, while seasoned Detective Philip “Flip” Zimmerman (Adam Driver) will pretend to be the white version of him in-person.
Film Synopsis:
From visionary filmmaker Spike Lee comes the incredible true story of an American hero. In the early 1970s, Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) becomes the first African-American detective in the Colorado Springs Police Department. Determined to make a difference, he bravely sets out on a dangerous mission. He recruits a seasoned colleague, Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver), into the undercover investigation. Together, they team up to take down the extremist organization aiming to garner mainstream appeal. Produced by the team behind the Academy Award®–winning Get Out, BlacKkKlansman offers an unflinching, true-life examination of race relations in 1970s America that is just as relevant in today’s tumultuous world.
