Set in a university office, The Niceties centers on a meeting between a progressive white professor and her Black student that spirals into a fierce, deeply human debate about race, power, history, and who gets to control the narrative. What begins with good intentions exposes uncomfortable truths about privilege, identity, and the limits of civility.
