WHITE TEARS

Based on a true story, WHITE TEARS is a surreal dark comedy and adventure-fantasy.

Our victim and hopeful hero, Cedric, has a seemingly casual romantic rendezvous with a woman he met while traveling. Shortly after their meetup, the woman’s White Tears send Cedric’s whole being and world into a state of horror! He eventually snaps out of his shock and into an epiphany that sets him on a quest he masterminds to cure and unburden his people of the White Tears Epidemic™️, otherwise known as white liberal guilt.

Our Love

Elani reflects on the love of her life who she views as a gift from God. Kai is perfect in every way, but one decision on a fateful night changes their relationship forever.

The Road to Justice

THE ROAD TO JUSTICE follows two groups on a civil rights tour through the American South as they reckon with our painful history of racial injustice. The first, a group of predominantly Black middle school students from Chicago, and the second, a group of older Americans who lived through the 1960's Civil Rights era. They come face to face with the leaders and everyday heroes whose courage and perseverance paved the way for future generations. The film was produced in partnership with The Nation, which began as the abolitionist newspaper "The Liberator" in 1831.

"Good People"

A young couple adjusting to their new suburban neighborhood become the targets of some unknown terror.

Disco

Disco is a street artist and poet of peace who spends most days selling his drawings at the corner of Wayne & Berkley in Philadelphia, PA. In this energetic and unflinchingly honest dive into his universe, we get a taste for his unrelenting vision for the future of his community. An impassioned declaration of all it takes to survive and thrive in modern America.
