The Sixth is a visceral portrayal of a city and nation under attack as well as a testament to the importance of truth. Told by Oscar-winning Washingtonian filmmakers, Andrea Nix Fine and Sean Fine, whose team was on the ground to capture footage of that day, this film presents an unseen geography and timeline of January 6th through the eyes of six people whose daily lives are rooted and connected in the fabric of the city. Through the intertwined and harrowing personal experiences of Rep. Jamie Raskin (MD), DC Metropolitan Chief of Police, Robert J. Contee lll, and his officers, Daniel Hodges and Christina Laury, photographer Mel D. Cole, and Congressional staffer Erica Loewe, their collective desire to recount the truth of what happened now provides a second chance to reckon with an uprising that shocked the world. The Sixth paints a vivid portrait of democracy as something we all need to fiercely protect and how close we came to its breaking point.
