There's a movement going on indie black film. It's amazing, it's inspiring, it's humbling, it's terrifying! Our film, THE LAST FALL, as I type is ranked #5 in the whole entire country, per screen average. I'm overwhelmed, I'm UNDERwhelmed, I'm in and out of tears, I'm staring off into space in wonder, I'm on my knees in prayer.
One screen with tons of support. No money, No marketing budget, just passion, word of mouth and social media.
There's a movement going on...
From the Ava Duvernay's, Matthew Cherry's, Corey Grant's, ND Brown's, Trey Haley's, Danielle Ross's, Russ Parr's, Lena Waithe's, Leila Djansi's, Dennis Dortch's, Inga Eiland's, Charles Murray's, Jackie Stone's, Numa Perrier's,...the list goes on and on.
A movement of black filmmakers who did it their way...ARE doing it their way.
It's amazing, it's inspiring, it's HUMBLING.
A story, a vision, a passion, a film can change the game. A person, a tear, a cry, a sparkle in the eye, a determination, can change the game. A film, a director, a writer, a script, a DP...can change the game.
A movement...can change the game.
A movement of filmmakers who are tired of the studios, tired of the run around, tired of the disappointments, tired of the stereotypes, tired of waiting on Hollywood...CAN CHANGE THE GAME.
A black woman who wins for the first time at Sundance, best director...CAN CHANGE THE GAME. (Ava Duvernay)
A former athlete who wins for best Screenplay can CHANGE THE GAME. (Matthew Cherry)
A mother who runs a mini black studio hammering out the top web series (rated by Grio) CAN CHANGE THE GAME! (Numa Perrier)
A boy from the islands who becomes one of the top black cinematographers CAN CHANGE THE GAME! (Richard Vialet)
How can you not see it.
There's a movement going on.
Don't sit on the sidelines, don't watch it pass you by. Pick up your camera, pick up your laptop and start writing.
How can you not be inspired to DO something.
There's a movement going on in Black Hollywood! It's amazing, it's humbling, it's POWERFUL, it's BEAUTIFUL, it's INSPIRING, it's TIME!!!!
CHANGE THE GAME!
