One of my favorite films to direct thus far has been Hero: The Extraordinary Life of Mr. Ulric Cross!

In this scene, you'll see Jessica B. Hill, who plays Nicola Cross, documenting an interview. It was important for me to position the story’s lens as female.

The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

#NW my own film Garvey’s Ghost because the future Marcus Garvey imagined is still being built!

It's one of my favorite pieces to date because the message hasn’t aged a day, the work is still calling us.

What to do, my last sunny days in Trinidad and Tobago before heading back to Canada!

Revisiting 'What My Mother Told Me as we enter GBV Month! #16Daysofactivism

I loved this shot, I was thinking about vulenrability, and how it’s so often misread when it comes from women.

Something I’ve realized about being a filmmaker from the Caribbean is that the industry wasn’t built with us in mind. We have to always build our own lanes.

All moved in! Loving the new space already.

I remember this still from What My Mother Told Me (1995).

We had no money, just a small crew, and a big story women weren’t “supposed” to tell!

So proud to see A Winter Tale travel to Rio de Janeiro this week! It's part of a powerful showcase of contemporary Latin American women filmmakers.

As a filmmaker it’s a reminder that resilience is a story that’s constantly being written, and we are all both audience and author.
