The moment I heard Issa Rae and LaKeith Stanfield would play romantic opposites in a major motion picture I was floored. It’s a delight watching them both on screen separately and in this Will Packer Production we are sure to see another beautiful iteration of black love and passion onscreen.

#DELUXMOVIES Contest:

Trivia Question:

Both Issa Rae and LaKeith Stanfield were both born on the same day in their respective birth month. What day were they both born on?

Issa Rae is so fine, intelligent, and just an inspiration…

Synopsis

On Valentine’s Day, Issa Rae (HBO’s Insecure, Little) and LaKeith Stanfield (FX’s Atlanta, Sorry to Bother You) connect in a romance where a woman must learn from the secrets in her mother’s past if she is to move forward and allow herself to love and be loved.

When famed photographer Christina Eames unexpectedly dies, she leaves her estranged daughter Mae Morton (Rae) hurt, angry and full of questions. When a photograph tucked away in a safe-deposit box is found, Mae finds herself on a journey delving into her mother’s early life and ignites a powerful, unexpected romance with a rising-star journalist, Michael Block (Stanfield).

From writer-director Stella Meghie (The Weekend, Jean of the Joneses) from her original screenplay comes a sweeping love story about forgiveness and finding the courage to seek the truth, no matter where it may lead you.
