The Film
Set against the backdrop of Omaha's deep divides and burgeoning racial justice movement, My Omaha tells the story of filmmaker Nick Beaulieu's personal journey to document the activism of his hometown and reconcile with his terminally ill father Randy, a staunch pro-Trump supporter. Guided by the wisdom of community activist Leo Louis II, Nick navigates the complexities of family conflict, political and racial discord, and the difficult search for common ground.

Reviews
““An ambitious documentary about divided families living in small-town America and the role national politics can play in driving an even deeper wedge between generations.””
““This is a staggering work that truly gives us an insight into the seeming chasms in America, that are actually bridged by love and emotion. Don't expect answers, but expect to be moved. Highly recommended.””
“My Omaha teaches us that it is the pursuit, the seeking of truth, that must continue. We must look at the change ourselves before seeking to change the world. This picture has a mighty heart.”
“Some films don’t just tell a story—they hold up a mirror, forcing us to examine our lives, relationships, and the ever-widening ideological divides in our society. MY OMAHA does just that, blending a deeply personal journey with a larger, urgent social commentary. It’s a film that doesn’t flinch when emotions run high.”
