The film had its world premiere at the 48th Telluride Film Festival in 2021. In August 2022, it was announced that Juno Films acquired American, Canadian and British distribution rights to the film, which was released in the Quad Cinema in New York City and the Laemmle Santa Monica on October 14, 2022.

The film has a 79% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 14 reviews. Nell Minow of RogerEbert.com awarded the film three and a half stars. David Ehrlich of IndieWire graded the film a B−.

Lisa Kennedy of Variety gave the film a positive review and wrote, "...it’s an often-touching time capsule of a harrowing moment in which rampant death and police brutality, white privilege and surging activism answered the call of so much grief."

Beatrice Loayza of The New York Times gave the film a negative review and wrote, "The film proves one thing, at least: Like many of us, Hedges and his actors clearly had too much time on their hands."

Stephen Farber of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review and wrote, "In short, this film leaves us moved and provoked — and impressed with its technical accomplishments — even if it isn’t a perfect distillation of our ongoing national nightmare."

Todd McCarthy of Deadline Hollywood also gave the film a positive review, calling it "...a grab bag that mostly engages your attention and sticks in the mind as a vivid slap-dash portrait of a city and, by extension, a world under siege."
