series Fight the Power: Black Superheroes on Film
Directed by J.D. Dillard | 2016
With Jacob Latimore, Seychelle Gabriel, Dulé Hill
One of the most unfairly overlooked releases of the last year is a subtly supernatural coming-of-age tale in which a teenage street magician (Latimore) growing up in LA is forced to put his Houdini-like skills to work as he struggles to leave behind his life as a drug dealer. Boasting an impressive breakout performance from Jacob Latimore, Sleight roots its refreshingly naturalistic origin story in a vividly realized socioeconomic reality.
