Violet, the Courtesan 

Welcome to a special episode of the Incluvie Movie Highlights. This summer we held the Incluvie Short Film Festival. The film festival discovers and brings to light some outstanding short films starring main characters from diverse backgrounds, who are often overlooked in Hollywood. The filmmakers and actors from the 3 winning films came in and talked about their process and what it was like to make the film.

'The Last Black Man in San Francisco' is part fiction, part documentary. Jimmie longs for the old Victorian home that he grew up in — the house that his grandfather built. However, this home is now in an overpriced, White, San Francisco neighborhood.

A 2020 Japanese anime movie that focuses on a high school girl who is desperately in love with her secret crush.

American Fiction is a genuinely entertaining film with a few lessons.

The film reminds us to remember the people who had the courage and dignity that had made the world better, even when the memory was absent.

We are constantly being pushed to move on from mishaps and negative feelings. What happens if we're not ready to do so?
