One Pint at a Time

Craft beer generates tens of billions of dollars annually for the US economy. Despite beer’s Egyptian and African heritage, these traditions have been mostly forgotten and are rarely found in American brewing culture. Today, Black-owned breweries make up less than 1% of the nearly 9,000 breweries in operation. Eager to shift the historical perception of who makes and drinks beer, Black brewers, brand owners and influencers across the country are reshaping the craft beer industry and the future of America’s favorite adult beverage.

A World Away

A World Away is a film that puts the spotlight on the perspective of a family member being unable to help a loved one victimized by domestic violence. There are many untold stories from this point of view. The cloud of shame can hang heavy on those who wish they could do more in dire times.

This is the experience of a man with few tools. His voice, love and humanity are all he has in the face of a volatile situation. Will it be enough?
