I produced this multi-award-winning indie narrative feature film Pink Opaque. Following our highly successful 2020 film festival tour, Pink Opaque is headed into distribution with 1091 Pictures globally and Bohemia Media in the UK summer of 2021. A story of love, family, hardship, and life in Los Angeles. Starring Elijah Boothe from Netflix's "Luke Cage," Pink Opaque is an ensemble film that follows Travis Wolfe's struggles, a film student fighting to finish his thesis film. While nurturing a budding romance with Kristen Lee, a street-wise fashion designer on the rise, Travis also reconnects with his estranged uncle, leading to an unfamiliar look at his family history and a renewed uncertainty of his future. The themes of love, family, and redemption make this a story that speaks to audiences while examining social issues like homelessness, sexuality, and prejudice. Created by a diverse team of Los Angeles-based filmmakers focused on creating inclusive content that normalizes diversity. Pink Opaque is 100% self-funded and self-produced without the support of a studio, institution, or grant. Filming took place in Hollywood, Koreatown, Malibu, Echo Park, Downtown, Beverly Hills, and beyond. Each location painted a distinct visual texture of the undeniable vastness of Los Angeles. website: www.pinkopaquefilm.com Instagram: @pinkopaquefilm Facebook: @pinkopaquefilm/FB #pinkopaquefilm #diversityinfilm
