CONSENT
Sean Langston (Michael Grant Terry) is a loving husband with little ambition. When his wife Aisha (Aja Naomi King) sets him up with a potentially career-changing client, Carol Newman (Brenda Strong), he learns that he’ll have to break his vows in order to seal the deal. However, the real surprise is that Aisha offers her consent. Sean is faced with sacrificing his fidelity in order to give his wife the life she wants. His decision could change both of them.
RETIREMENT
Lifelong friends are faced with the choices they’ve made at the cusp of a new chapter in life.

MONEY MATTERS
A moving and intimate film that follows Monique "Money" Matters (Terri Abney) caught at the brink of adolescence. Her relationship with her mother Pamela Matters (Aunjanue Ellis- RAY, THE HELP), is far from stable and depicts the struggle between a young mother and daughter who both come of age...together.
