Presented as part of the Cables & Cameras: Inspired weekend of events, screenings and talks – both online and offline – highlighting and encouraging the work of black and POC filmmakers, this is the Bristol premiere of the new 16 minute short by award-winning local director Michael Jenkins.
Here’s the official synopsis: “Pickney is the story of Leon, a mixed-race teenager trying to work out where he fits in. He is close to his Nan, the only person he knows from his Jamaican side of the family. He goes to his Nan’s Nine Nights and meets the rest of his family for the first time where he begins to understand identity is more than just skin deep.”
The screening will be followed by a conversation between Michael Jenkins and actor Ajani Cabey hosted by Adam Murray (Come The Revolution / Black Bristol Horror Club.) There will also be a chance to ask questions via text.
