"For almost every one of these individuals, they're talking about things that happened yesterday for them, or that they will carry with them for many years to come."

Oscar-winning screenwriter John Ridley and veteran ABC News producer Jeanmarie Condon wove together intimate first person accounts and archival footage to create a stunning, cinematic portrait of the events preceding the 1992 Los Angeles riots in the new documentary 'Let It Fall.'

Ridley and Condon visited the Columbia Journalism School to discuss the film with professor June Cross. They won a 2018 duPont-Columbia Award for the film.
