During the first ten minutes of Cheryl Horner McDonough&#8217;s &#8220;Parkland Rising,&#8221; we hear audio recorded by students from that day, with cell phone videos and 9-1-1 calls painting the desperation and panic felt by all. McDonough also relies on a present-day roundtable interview with students, led by their AP Psychology teacher Ronit Reoven, to further reconstruct the day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<section>\n<p>But \u201cParkland Rising\u201d isn\u2019t about the deadly shooting, so much as the activism that arose from it. Since that day, Parkland survivors like\u00a0David Hogg, Emma Gonzalez, along with\u00a0the parents of Joaquin Oliver and a host of others, have campaigned across the country for stricter gun laws. McDonough&#8217;s &#8220;Parkland Rising&#8221; isn&#8217;t the first documentary to recount the Parkland tragedy\u2014Emily Taguchi and Jake Lefferman did so too with \u201cAfter Parkland,&#8221; covering many of the same beats. But through its images of peaceful protests and demonstrations from the era, McDonough&#8217;s narrow but inspiring film\u00a0finds deeper relevance in the face of the current protests surrounding George Floyd\u2019s murder.<br \/><\/br><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, many of the familiar names associated with Parkland\u2014mainly Emma Gonzalez, though she does <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ear heavily in protest footage\u2014did not provide interviews to McDonough, which causes \u201cParkland Rising&#8221; to only scratch the surface of the varied struggles and post-event memorials. With this film being McDonough&#8217;s second feature-length documentary, one gets the sense that a more experienced director would have better captured the complexities of other survivors. Instead, the documentary frames the resulting activism through the still-compelling experiences of Hogg and Joaquin Oliver\u2019s parents Manuel and Patricia. The two sides, along with other activists, band together for peaceful campaigns for stricter gun laws, protests like \u201cMarch for Our Lives\u201d\u2014which drew celebrities like will.i.am and Jennifer Hudson\u2014and \u201cDie-Ins,\u201d where Hogg and others laid on the floor of Publix with flowers after the grocery chain donated to pro-NRA candidate Adam Putnam. The timeline of these demonstrations is often difficult to follow in the film, as dates are flagged but their proximity to the activists\u2019 major protests is often left unclear.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the activists\u2019 political actions, McDonough records their respective struggles in the face of opposition. For instance, Hogg and Gonzalez experienced a barrage of hateful tweets and threats, some of which are included here. And while McDonough blurs many of the menacing handles that produced such bile, she left Frank Stallone calling Hogg a \u201cpussy\u201d unredacted. The teens, in an effort to spur grassroots support, also try to make in-roads with Second Amendment supporters through sobering face-to-face conversations. When pro-NRA protesters bring AR-15s\u2014the same gun used by Cruz\u2014into the Parkland demonstrations, McDonough makes their stomach churning tone-deafness palpable by juxtaposing shots of uneasy and angered demonstrators. In their\u00a0unwavering maturity, the teens balance appearances on &#8220;Anderson Cooper&#8221; and other late-night shows, leaving one not\u00a0just amazed at their awareness, but mournful for their now-lost adolescence.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<section>\n<p>On the parents&#8217; side, McDonough interviews Fred Guttenberg, father of Jamie, and follows Manuel and Patricia Oliver\u2019s creation of public art displays through their program \u201cWalls of Demand.\u201d They\u2019ve dedicated their lives, almost suspending themselves in time, as evidenced by Manuel heartbreakingly packing Joaquin\u2019s bookbag for the return to school at Stoneman Douglas, in an effort to change gun laws. In one\u00a0scene, Manuel creates a mural while listening to a playlist of Joaquin\u2019s favorite songs\u2014the Pearl Jam coming from his headphones is powerfully contrasted with the silent music-less noise the assembled crowd hears as he\u2019s constructed the piece.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But even as pro-NRA politicians lose their midterm elections due to the survivors\u2019 grassroots efforts, the accumulative efforts by both parents and students often look insurmountable. As Jaclyn Corin explains, when discussing the school\u2019s new ineffectual policy of requiring students to wear clear plastic backpacks, the response to their efforts has mostly been met with band-aid policies by those in charge. Of course, this makes \u201cParkland Rising\u201d extremely relevant. As violent protests have broken out across the country in response to the death of George Floyd at the hands of police, Black Lives Matter demonstrators have made it clear that they\u2019re tired of band-aids. They\u2019re tired of broken promises from a fractured system. The activists at the center of \u201cParkland Rising\u201d very much believe in the tenets of peaceful protests, but their aim and disposition is colored by a different time, and a hint of naivet\u00e9 that the system still works with only rightly applied pressure.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>Available on VOD Friday, 6\/5.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Robert Daniels\" src=\"https:\/\/static.rogerebert.com\/uploads\/user\/primary_image\/robert-daniels\/featured_IMG_0553__2_.jpg\" title=\"Robert Daniels\"><\/img><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div><figcaption>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Robert_Daniels\"><\/span>Robert Daniels<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>Robert Daniels is a freelance film critic based in Chicago with a MA in English.
