Description:

In this thought-provoking drama, a seasoned novelist grows increasingly frustrated by the exploitation he sees in the "Black" entertainment industry. Determined to make a statement, he adopts a pseudonym and pens a book that explores the very issues he detests - hypocrisy and madness within the cultural landscape. As his work gains traction and draws attention from both supporters and critics alike, our protagonist finds himself ensnared in the same world he sought to challenge. Navigating complex relationships and uncovering uncomfortable truths, he must confront the very industry he'd sought to rebel against while questioning the power of art and his own intentions in creating it. This compelling film offers a nuanced look at creativity, integrity, and the human experience when faced with the contradictions of an ever-changing world.
