I wrote & co-directed this film at 7months pregnant. Honored to be officially selected for the Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival 2026. 🤎🎬 This one is for Black mothers... Our Care. Our Joy. Our Survival. Silence is compliance...and I’m just getting started. #MVAFF #BlackMaternalHealth #ShortFilm #BlackWomenCreate #WomenInFilm
