SUMMER
It’s the last day of summer break and a young girl is determined to enjoy every last minute. But dangers lurk within the shadows and jeopardize the innocence of her childhood. Facing the harsh realities of the real world, she is now desperate to return to the place she once couldn’t wait to leave…home.
HELLO!
I have some exciting news I’d like to share with you! I’m making a movie!
In the late 70’s, the city of Atlanta was terrorized by a child killer. This era is known by many as the Atlanta Child Murders. I grew up in the city during this time and the frightening memories have never left me.
The inspiration for Summer came to me one night in a dream. I thought about my own experiences growing up in Atlanta during this time and the profound effect it had on my life. The thought of being taken from my family has always haunted me. I thought about victims and the pain their families endured from their loss.
Summer is a story that encapsulates the overall tone of growing up during this time along with addressing some of the other social dynamics at play for a Black child growing up in the city.
“I have poured my heart into this project over the last 6 months and now It’s time to take it to the next level”
5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW
The story is based on a real life event that took place in Atlanta and known as the Atlanta Child Murders. The case was recently reopened by the Mayor of Atlanta, Keisha Lance Bottoms.
