The Color Brown - Short Film
Donation protected
Greetings brothers and sisters, The Color Brown is a short film created by a group of young, multi-talented, and passionate Black filmmakers who aim to bring authentic human experiences, by and about Black people, to the screen.
LOG LINE: Set against the angelic scenery of Erie, Pennsylvania, The Color Brown follows the emotional union of two siblings who have never met, upon the death of their estranged mother. This story, which delves into the Black experience in America combined with West African culture through music and art, attempts to unveil the unjust reality of untreated mental health issues.
In order to bring forth our vision, we need our community to partner with us on this journey. Harry Gregson-Williams, once said, "four ounces can move a thousand pounds." Support can come in many different ways. A Facebook share, a retweet, word of mouth, or even a donation will all contribute towards production fees, housing, transportation, and the payment of cast and crew.
Through a micro-lens, Harper Sumney, an in-house counselor in the midst of depression, and Love Wright, a graduate student in pursuit of a deeper connection to her mother, dig into the perfect facade of one another as they hope to find answers to the childhood abuse they endured. Over the course of 36 hours, the siblings run the gamut of emotions through personal stories and experiences and their own idiosyncrasies.
This year, we have witnessed significant change through movement from being stripped of our social freedoms to basic human rights. We want to offer this project as an opportunity to instill power and to amplify the voice of the unsung.
We are grateful and look forward to seeing our Color Brown family grow.
