INVESTMENTS - THE BASICS
My team and I have a slate of movies consisting of two features: 7 SHARP and Torn Direction.
One is a sinister drama unraveling family secrets, while the other grapples with the seen and unseen reality of Black men.
Two great indie films with potential to be the next classic movie and potential blockbuster like black female director, Kasi Lemmons, did with her record breaking directorial debut and indie film, Eve's Bayou.
We'd love to discuss more of the projects and ensure that that the investors and their families will have a chance to be involved, come on set, be in the film and attend all screenings and red carpets
...just in case you're wondering.
