NYT Review
Rodney Evans's heartfelt first film finds its lead character, a young, gay, black and beautiful student at Columbia University, caught between two worlds. Love and a glimmer of an answer come calling soon after he picks up a book on the Harlem Renaissance, the artistic, literary and intellectual movement that blazed throughout the 1920's and was centered north of 110th Street.
