Numa Perrier 'In the Morning'


I've been waiting for this news for over a year! Mutihyphenated Haitian-American artist Numa Perrier soon can be seen on the big screen in New York at the premiere of Nefertite Nguvu's 'In the Morning.' Also starring in the film is Emayatzy Corinealdi (Middle of Nowhere, Miles Ahead, Gun Hill, The Silent Treatment). 

I first heard of this film about two years ago and have been anticipating its release ever since. The film follows three couples navigating issues of love, desire, anger. The film is described as a mood piece and per the filmmaker's synopsis:

"Friends, Harper, Ravi, Fez, Bly and Amara, gather to bid farewell to one of their own moving abroad, and debate the compromise and loss of their youthful ideals about marriage, fidelity, life and love; 2 lovers, Malik and Cadence, meet to ceremoniously end a whirlwind romance that has collapsed under the weight of fears, obligations and regrets; A couple, Zuri and Leal, sift through the remains of their broken relationship as they try to make a life altering decision, journeying through the bitter heartbreak that comes with faded love, disintegrated trust, and dreams abandoned. For everyone, life will be indelibly altered in the morning."

The film screens at the Urban World Film Festival in New York on September 20th at 8pm. Check out Urban World's website for more details ----> HERE.
