Passing is a 2021 black-and-white drama film based on the 1929 novel of the same name by Nella Larsen and refers to African-Americans who had skin color light enough to be perceived as white, referred to as “passing.”
“Passing” follows the unexpected reunion of two high school friends, whose renewed acquaintance ignites a mutual obsession that threatens both of their carefully constructed realities. While Irene identifies as African-American and is married to a Black doctor, Clare “passes” as white and has married a prejudiced, wealthy white man.
