The Academy Award–winning filmmaker revisted his 1989 film Do the Right Thing in a new short film responding to the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers. 3 Brothers — Radio Raheem, Eric Garner and George Floyd compiles Radio Raheem’s death scenes from Do the Right Thing with real footage of the deaths of Eric Garner in 2014 and George Floyd last week.
This is Lee’s second short film in response to global societal issues this month. On May 8, he released one dedicated to the coronavirus-ravaged New York City.

His latest exploration of the black American experience takes Vietnam War veterans back to recover the body of their fallen friend, played by Chadwick Boseman in flashbacks.
