SYNOPSIS

"Mix in the rawness of spoken word, guerilla style filmmaking and a little racism, you get Passport-- a film that delivers a powerful, compelling, "in your face" look at the Foreigner Within stereotype. See how one performer from Seattle's most notarized Arts Kollective, Isangmahal, deals with a direct racial slur expressed through a unique style of poetry."
