YAKfilms's video: FEAR Part II of The Just and The Blind short film directed by Yoram Savion

FEAR - Part II of The Just and The Blind Directed by Yoram Savion Written by Marc Bamuthi Joseph Composed by Daniel Bernard Roumain DP: Gabrielle Blackwood AD: Anna-Sharé Blake Sound and Editor: Benjamin Tarquin Produced by Rika Iino, Melissa Higgins and Yoram Savion | Sozo Artists @sozoartists Cast: Maya Wilkinson and Yoram Savion Starring: Sule Thelwell, Zaria Diarra, Everaldo Creary and Jeff Crossley FEAR features American writer, spoken word artist, and activist Marc Bamuthi Joseph alongside a Kingston, Jamaica-based cast and is the second film in the trilogy The Just and the Blind. The Jamaican cast and crew “make powerful statements about patriarchy, the deadly menace of readily available weapons, and police violence — which all too often escalate already toxic situations,” explains Savion. “While all three of these films can stand on their own, the holistic architecture is to trace backward through the African diaspora — from Oakland, to Kingston, and finally Dakar (Senegal)." Winner at the AfroComicCon Film Festival 2019. FEAR premiered in September 2019 at the opening festival for The REACH, at The Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Learn more: www.thejustandtheblind.com.
