our film @dearmamafilm recently had its public release in @newyorkermag. this story holds such special place in my heart, and it came at just the right time to remind me of what kind of stories i want to tell. as we continue on the festival circuit (got some exciting ones coming up) i hope you’ll take a few minutes of your time to watch what we created. swipe through to the end for a lil sneaky peek hit the link in my bio for the full short. this is a story that holds space for Black grief and still resonates universally. it reaffirms Black humanity. every single bit of it and all without reducing us to our trauma. we need more day in the life stories like this, and i hope to have a hand in telling them. thank you to @newyorkermag for sharing our work with the world. from our incredible team of producers, to @nicolemdizon @xinliazure and @jordanhart11, our casting director @shyrees who saw my potential, our beautifully nuanced writer @heycharmaineee, the incomparably skilled cinematographer @mike_maliwanag, my wonderful on screen dad @thegarlandscott, and of course, @itswinterdunn who is a true visionary.
