The Inspection is a deeply moving drama based on a true story about a
troubled man that discovers how truly strong he really is. In Elegance
Bratton’s film inspired by his own story, a young, gay Black man
(Jeremy Pope), rejected by his mother (Gabrielle Union) 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-seeded 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. [2022, US, 95
