Homegrown is an unflinching chronicle of Americans at war with each other. Three conservative activists--a newly politicized father-to-be in New Jersey, an Air Force veteran organizing conservatives in New York City, and a charismatic activist from Texas--crisscross the country in the summer of 2020, campaigning for Donald Trump and building a movement they hope will outlast him. When they become convinced that the election is stolen, they take their fight to the streets.

Homegrown never makes excuses for its subjects, but the disturbing ordinariness of these men is chilling.

Premo’s commitment and grit are palpable — especially when one notes how close to the action he gets during the Capitol insurrection, so that the camera shows every jostle and bump.

I wanted to turn it off at many points, but I'm glad that I stuck with it, because the whole film is deep verité. You don't have any notion of who is behind the camera... It does a reality check that I found gratifying.

Homegrown is not a film that takes a stance one way or the other on the extreme political divide Donald Trump has created in the nation.

Much of the footage is illuminating, particularly when it focuses on the complexities of former Proud Boys chief of Salt Lake City Thad Cisneros, but a lot of what is included does not add much to an already crowded conversation.

There have been a number of documentaries that have pulled footage from (January 6), but director Michael Premo and his crew were there to film one of the participants in his documentary Homegrown.
