The Blackstage

For episode 6 of Blackstage we partnered with Moorelight Studios to bring to the platform “Owners,” an original series and official selection of American Black Film Festival.

“Owners” follows Terence, a 30-something who is tired of feeling the constraints of being a minority in the workplace. He decides to start his own company to become an owner, but his decision to do so erupts his life into chaos.
