“Malcolm Washington’s confident directorial debut both honors the soul of August Wilson’s Pulitzer Prize winning play and infuses it with a vibrant cinematic sensibility. He’s assembled a great cast, actors who have an incredible sense of the language and spirit that made Wilson one of America’s greatest playwrights,” said Zoë Elton, MVFF Director of Programming. “And Danielle Deadwyler’s work in this film is exquisite. As she did in Till, she again proves herself to be one of the most outstanding actors of her generation.”

“Danielle’s artwork is modern and down to earth with its neutral palette, pops of colors, and shapes, lines, and textures inspired from the world around her,” says co-curator Powers.”Style and beauty are inherent in her compositions. The artist uses a combination of natural pigments, acrylics, oil pastels and charcoal; she sources natural pigments from stones collected on hikes that she determines to have color, grinding them to powder and using water and walnut oils on raw canvas to let their color make art. These foraged and hand made pigments are archival.”
