AN ODE TO FATHERHOOD

In this spoken word short film, director Anderson West and poet Ryan Sinclair collaborate to celebrate the beauty and resilience of Black fatherhood. Countering negative stereotypes and narratives, the film explores how Black fathers love, nurture, and support their children. Through spoken word and vignettes of the day-to-day lives of these fathers, we are proud to have created a personal and hopeful short film.
