Unheard Voices: Mother-Son Documentary Project
Tosha Smith-Mills and her son Christopher Horne are the epitome of visionaries and storytellers of this unseen narrative as they were directly impacted when Mrs. Mills’ son Blake received a forty-year prison sentence at seventeen years old for a robbery in Texas. This mother-son duo is out on a mission to uplift the dignity of mothers who all have their very own personal narratives with children in prison. Who thinks about the mothers? The mothers are the missing piece of the puzzle. As this started out as a passion project, Mrs. Mills started to witness the same illnesses that she faced when her son went to prison amongst other mothers; Mrs. Mills knew that she needed to inspire those who were on the same quest for freedom.
In this never-before-seen documentary series, Mrs. Mills and Mr. Horne join forces in Unheard Voices: A Mother’s Quest for Freedom to bring you unseen footage and unheard voices to understand how change should be a necessity. You will witness healing and breakthroughs as each parent is coming into their very own personal reality, taking accountability, and overcoming a daunting nightmare that they thought would never shift from pain to purpose.
Tosha Smith-Mills is the CEO of a talent agency, a Paralegal, a visionary, an advocate, an award-winning and Amazon best-selling author of Momma I Should Have Listen: A Voice of Pain and Power, a memoir detailing her journey to healing through her son’s incarceration. Mrs. Mills started a national organization called Parents with Voices, Inc. that aims to help parents challenge their trauma living with an incarcerated child as well as assisting them to find their purpose in advocacy.
Christopher Horne, a New Orleans native, now residing in New York City, a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology, an award-winning fashion photographer and upcoming filmmaker, CEO of Christopher Horne Photography and Unheard Productions, LLC, is making his directing debut in Unheard Voices: A Mother’s Quest for Freedom. On this God-given assignment, Christopher uses his creative eye as a photographer and tells a story that brings humanity to each mothers’ narrative in order to help them change the trajectory of their trauma.
