“'Locked Out' is a sobering examination of the state of homeownership for Black Americans — one that rings true even outside of Detroit. While it may not be an easy watch, it’s a film that demands attention and gives a voice to homeowners who were, and still often are, victims of injustices in the housing industry."
— Maida Suta, The Daily Californian

"The documentary didn’t just pull at my heartstrings, it snatched them from my chest. Locked Out delves into the necessary story of modern-day redlining in majority Black cities like Detroit, but isn’t news to anyone who has lived it."
— Randiah Camille Green, Detroit Metro Times

"ABFF is also spotlighting multiple documentaries, but it’s likely that the award-winning 'Locked Out,' which captures the real-life implications of the housing crisis, that will feel most familiar to Floridians. Directed by Oscar nominee Kate Davis and Luchina Fisher, it highlights the stories of three Black women in Detroit struggling with the impact of housing injustice."
