In Elegance Bratton’s deeply moving film inspired by his own story, a young, gay Black man, rejected by his
mother and with few options for his future, decides to join the Marines, doing whatever it takes to succeed in a
system that would cast him aside. But even as he battles deep-seated prejudice and the grueling routines of
basic training, he finds unexpected camaraderie, strength, and support in this new community, giving him a
hard-earned sense of belonging that will shape his identity and forever change his life.
