"SOFT FOCUS", the new film by Rod Gailes OBC, is available FREE ONLINE for ONE WEEK ONLY!
After only a few hours online it's received hundreds of views and counting!
Monday OCT 15th - Sunday OCT 21st
Winner of the 2nd Shadow And Act Filmmaker Challenge, Soft Focus tells the story of "Marcus" a
young man torn between continuing the curious boyhood obligations
imposed by his religiously zealous mother or stepping into a colorful
world of adult choices and consequences. Partnered with his good friend
Niecy, he chooses the latter, diving headlong into a night of carnal
adventure complete with balloons, birthday cake, and Kunta, another
young traveler on the road to self discovery. Can Marcus untie the
ritual apron strings of a repressed home life to pursue his own version
of manhood?
"Soft Focus" stars Damion Omar Lee, Angela Lewis (Audelco Nominated for "Milk Like Sugar" & currently appearing in the world premiere of “Don’t Go Gentle”), Madeleine Dauzart (Camouflage, Twin Cousins), and introduces Aaron Clifton Moten (from the hit Broadway play, “A Streetcar Named Desire”), as "Kunta".

A few words from the filmmaker:

"Making the film
was a complete joy! The biggest reward will come, however, in how it
affects people and sparks discussion. The film's themes
of self discovery and self determination are important to me. It has
already been called my most thematically "controversial" film, and I am
very proud of it. I hope you get something from it and share it with as
many people as possible."
-Rod Gailes OBC
