American Fiction isn't your average piece of cinema entertainment.

Sharp and incisive, it's a satire that aims savage barbs at modern culture.
It's the story of an author, Monk, played by Jeffrey Wright, who becomes disillusioned with the way the publishers he wants to work with only seem interested in stereotypical black storytelling.
In frustration, he pens a book overflowing with black clichés. To his dismay, it becomes an instant literary hit.
