INHERITANCE (2024)
"Unflinching in depicting the lives that so many Americans face but are so rarely seen.” –NPR Here & Now
​​
Filmed over ten years, Inheritance immerses audiences in a family of love, struggle, and hope as experienced through the eyes and ears of one boy, Curtis, and five generations of his extended family. Grandma and family matriarch, Cheryl, guides audiences into Curtis’ world. Leaving boyhood, but not his family, behind, Curtis moves toward an uncertain future.
