As a first-generation

ALL in NYC

and
audiences

For a film created

🏆🏆🏆
Over Carnival weekend
when the
Caribbean gathers
to celebrate
a tradition
born from
resistance
and
the reclamation of space
I received some beautiful news
.
@standcleartheclosingdoors
is nominated for 4 awards at
Conch Shell International Film Fest
.
🏆 Best Film
🏆 Best Director
🏆 Best Cinematographer-@t.s.naylor
🏆 Best Lead Performer-@StaceySargeant
.
This deeply personal
New York story
shaped by my Caribbean roots
could not have been made without my mother
.
One of my greatest supporters throughout my life
her belief in
my vision for this film
helped make it possible
.
Her being from Tobago🇹🇹
and a
first-time Executive Producer on
Stand Clear ‘ the Closing Doors
makes
sharing this journey with her especially meaningful
.
To be recognized by
@CownchShellIFF
a festival
celebrating Caribbean voices feels like a beautiful continuation of the
love
support
and
belief
that brought it to
life
.
Heartfelt thanks to the jurors

This week
I had to remind myself
of this ⬆️ day
which seems like a lifetime ago
.
This week
I had to remind myself
of my community
those who came together
to help me
realize my vision
+
celebrate the
manifestation of that vision
[before]
there were laurels attached to
@standcleartheclosingdoors
.

This industry
(exhale + strike that)
the [politics] of this industry
(well, the people make the politics, so...)
the [people] in this industry
can sometimes leave you
feeling so
undervalued + unappreciated
like
everything you’ve
done
given
created
means
nothing
.
The sacrifices we make
to be here
to remain relevant
the things we essentially
[choose] to miss out on personally (sigh)
🤦🏾‍♀️🥹
#iykyk
.
As I ponder on
whether or not
the
cost of doing business
is worth it
I realize the community
that helped me create
this film
wouldn’t have been there for me to call
if I didn’t partake in
this business
.
so
here [still]
I AM
