Flag Wars is a look inside the conflicts that surface when black working-class families are faced with an influx of white gay homebuyers to their Columbus, Ohio neighborhood. Filmed over four years, Flag Wars’ “as-it-is-happening” cinéma vérité style captures the emotions and honesty of unguarded moments as tensions mount between neighbors.

Ce film est l'histoire de quatre femmes exceptionnelles, résistantes, prisonnières, idéalistes qui à la fin de leurs adolescences risquèrent leurs vies pour combattre l'occupant nazi. Ni juives, ni communistes, elles rejoignirent la résistance alors qu'elles auraient pu tranquillement vivre en sécurité. Dans les deux ans qui suivirent, elles furent arrêtées par la Gestapo et déportées à Buchenwald. Aujourd'hui elles sont devenues des leaders sociaux ou intellectuels.
