Support Indie Filmmakers In Making "The Oath"

Donation protected
We have seen the news. We know the story. We sadly are familiar with the narrative. A young African-American man is shot and killed at the hands of a police officer. However, what happens before? What actually goes on in someone's head that forces them to make a decision to choose between life or death. And what about the aftermath? How does each side handle the lost of a life?

"The Oath" is the story that  brings a community together after a young African-American man is shot and killed by a police officer, and community leaders and residents are each on the opposite end of the spectrum when it comes to justice for all or injustice towards a specific race or skin color. The difference in our story and other narratives is that the story is examined from five different angles: the family, the police, the church, the protestors, and the media. 


We see how the family handles dealing with the impact of death in the household and how they are handling losing someone suddenly especially in this tragic incident. We see how the police officers are struggling with staying true to their brother in blue or standing up for their beliefs. We see how the protestors are dealing with fighting for change, but we see it from two spectrums: peace protesting or justice by any means. We see how the church is caught in the middle of standing up for what's right or getting caught in a cultural war with the members of the church. Lastly, but most importantly, we see how the media plays a critical role in shaping the narrative of what happened and how they play a vital part in shaping the opinions of viewers watching. Each spectrum takes an oath, and in this film, we'll see how that oath is tested.

The film is being produced by 1 Accord Media, an independent multi-media production company providing quality entertainment following faith, uplift, quality, fairness, and collaboration, in collaboration with Victory Productions Network, an independent production company that focuses on creating content that aspires to inspire through entertainment, education, enlightenment, and encouragement by telling real stories that can be received by real people. With the unique composition of our production team, we provide a special mixture of experience, knowledge, advanced technique, ambition and vision. ​This includes over 95 festival nominations and over 40 festival victories domestically and internationally, in addition to a number of accolades, including acknowledgements as Georgia Trend Magazine’s Top 40 Under 40, Golden Star Ad Honorem in Rome, Italy, and Featured Highlights Awards Honoree. ​These qualities, combined with our cohesive work environment, will result in a high-quality production. We are confident that our film will surpass the expectations of the average independent film. Our dedication to exceptional filmmaking is evident in our work, which also helps to set us apart.
