Skillfully incorporating archival material, revealing verité footage and clips from his own work, this gripping documentary chronicles the life and work of the black gay filmmaker Marlon Riggs. Often called "the whipping-boy of the Right", Riggs was most well known for fighting censorship battles resulting from his landmark 1989 film Tongues Untied, but I Shall Not Be Removed also shows Riggs as an innovative teacher, a prolific documentarian, and a gay man fighting AIDS. More than 50 hours of footage was shot for this documentary during the last two years of Riggs's life. It has been woven into a moving tribute to a remarkable artist and human being.
