At prestigious Winchester University, biracial student Samantha White (Tessa Thompson, Selma) begins her radio show by stating, "Dear White People, the amount of black friends required, not to seem racist, has just been raised to two. Sorry, your weed man Tyrone doesn't count". With her sharp tongue and witty radio show, it’s not long before Sam causes a stir among the administration and student body alike. Winner of the prestigious Special Jury Award for Breakthrough Talent at the Sundance Film Festival, “Dear White People” is a sly, provocative satire of race relations in the Obama Age - and a hilarious treat of a film.
