Homegrown is an unflinching political documentary that chronicles the lives of three right-wing activists during the 2020 US election and their subsequent participation in the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack.

The film was directed by American journalist and filmmaker **Michael Premo**.

The film primarily follows three Proud Boys members/activists who appear as themselves: **Thad Cisneros**, **Chris Quaglin**, and **Randy Ireland**.

It features raw, embedded footage of the three subjects participating in the violent **January 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol**.

The genre is **Documentary / Political Thriller**, and it has a runtime of **109 minutes** (1 hour and 49 minutes).

This release is a high-quality **1080p WEBRip x264** with **AAC** audio.

The film takes a *cinéma vérité* approach, aiming for objective and non-judgmental representation, allowing their actions and words to speak for themselves.

It premiered at the **Venice International Film Festival** on August 30, 2024, where it won the Mario Serandrei Award.

The film centers on the **MAGA** and **Proud Boys** movements and the increasing political divisions in the United States.

Director Michael Premo, a Black filmmaker, gained an unprecedented level of embedded access to a media-wary and often racially-charged right-wing movement.

Chris Quaglin received one of the longest prison sentences connected to the riots at the time the film concluded its narrative—12 years.

No, it covers the entire lead-up, following the subjects from the summer of 2020 through their campaigning for Donald Trump and the resulting unrest.
