Jackson Ward recalls the horrors of a weekend outing to amused coworkers and entertained onlookers. The story plays out in real time in front of the audience as Jackson narrates the event, dinner at a friend’s house, and discovering that the house sits on a plantation. Filmed at the Richmond Slavery Reconciliation Statue and the Historic Westover Plantation, Break explores differing perspectives of the same situation, discovering the communication gap between worlds and the deep-rooted need for reconciliation of our collective truth.
