About The Public

An act of civil disobedience turns into a standoff with police when homeless people in Cincinnati take over the public library to seek shelter from the bitter cold.

Emilio Estevez's The Public is a 2019 drama film. Its themes are audacious, affectation, awestruck, and baffled.

The screenplay is by Emilio Estevez. Produced by Hammerstone Studios.

Apocalypto, Breaking Surface, and The Dare make useful companions to The Public, all filed under absurd, admiring, and adoring. TMDB voters put it at 6.5 out of 10 across 90 votes and it carries a PG-13 rating.
