Charcoal's strength is in its confrontation. A Faustian examination of racial and queer inequity, trauma, sexual assault, and PTSD. The main character's art literally drives the narrative, except on those occasions when she can wrest back control. An examination of power that questions whether or not it must corrupt, or do we choose to reproduce the violence of the privilaged in our deeply unjust society when we gain acess to power?
