My Brother's Keeper - Isaiah Williams Thesis Film

My Brother’s Keeper follows Dr. Moses Young, a Black physician whose oath to help others is put to the test when he discovers a wanted runaway slave in need. Through this story, the audience will explore the virtues of empathy, self-sacrifice, and our shared responsibility to care for those in need.

To make this film a reality, we need your donation. Any amount puts us closer to our goal.

My Brother’s Keeper is a graduate thesis film produced by a team of talented filmmakers from the Savannah College of Art & Design - Atlanta. Our dream for this film is to encourage audiences to see reflections of ourselves in those less fortunate, and to lift them up, even if it may mean sacrificing our own comfort.

Every dollar you donate will go toward production expenses, including, cast, equipment rentals, location costs, production design, catering, transportation, post-production, film festival submissions, and more.
