L-R: David Swajeski, Rachel Watanabe-Batton, and Nary Manivong
Anthony Mackie) and Patricia
(played by Kerry Washington)
on one block in Philadelphia
in 1976. At the heart of the
story is Marcus' return to his
old neighborhood to bury his
father after his mysterious dis
appearance immediately fol
lowing the fatal shooting
death of a friend, a fellow
Panther and Patricia's hus
band.
Told through the eyes of
the dead man's daughter
played by Iris (played by
Jamara Griffin), this slow
moving drama deals with an
extended family's struggles
with memories of the past and
their desire to move into the
future. Iris' character is the
glue that holds this story
together.
Hamilton said this story
was inspired by the life of a
family friend. “I had a very
simple agenda with this film.
I'm interested in characters. It
is not a political film,” she
said. “The film looks at the
complexities of Marcus'
struggles. He was struggling
to do the right thing” by
being a man who wanted to
be Iris' father figure and
Patricia's lover but not in the
home where his friend was
killed.
By focusing on the fic
tional characters in the Black
Panther Party, Hamilton, 42,
of Philadelphia, said she
hopes viewers will consider
what it is like for the real
people “behind the faqade.”
