Can a city be more than its reputation? More than what the powers-that-be see it as? With record homicides and impending bankruptcy, Stockton, CA might at first glance seem to be the last place for a smart, driven, up-and-coming 22-year old Stanford graduate to stake his claim. But Michael Tubbs' is no ordinary Stanford grad. In Jhanvi Shriram's documentary True Son, Michael, a Stockton native born to a teenage mother and incarcerated father, begins a remarkable election campaign for city council, rallying hundreds of Stockton residents between the ages of 14-21 to join his movement to Reinvent Stockton, and picking up support from the likes of local politicians and Oprah Winfrey along the way.
