Round Table
This short film talks about the state of affairs within the black community in a comical and satirical way. This short will touch on many different issues within the black community. Imagine having an elected official for each of the different stereotypical images faced within the black community, and then that same community coming together in a secret meeting to discuss, debate, develop solutions to move forward as a whole. This film should not only make you laugh, but also help you to see the hidden message in each conversation.
