Traffic Stop addresses an issue central to American consciousness over recent years - the tendency for people of colour to come off badly when stopped by the police. This film uses video footage from a camera on the dashboard of a police vehicle to show what happened to Breaion King, a 26-year-old African-American school teacher from Austin, Texas, when she was pulled over for breaking the speed limit. Kate Davis, the film's director, talks to the Â鶹Éç's Roger Hearing about how the film came about. (Photo: Breaion King's arrest in 2015. Credit: HBO)
