Shades of Soul: Too Much Drama

This ensemble of short films is geared toward the often underrepresented African-American cinema viewing audience. "Next Afternoon" stars rapper Heavy D as the wrongful recipient of stolen goods; in "Blow from the Past," two friends get caught up in a dark scene; "Wooden Nickels" follows two lovers beset by addiction; in "Open the Sky," a thriving writer heads home to give thanks; and in "Gamepoint," skills on the court are put to the test.
