XSW | THE BLACK SEA | Festival World Premiere | Narrative Feature Competition Section on Saturday, March 9
From the Filmmaker of The Wolfpack and Skate Kitchen Crystal Moselle and Musician, Actor, Filmmaker & Barista Derrick B Harden THE BLACK SEA SXSW World Premiere - Narrative Feature Competition on Saturday, March 9th!
Inspired by Derrick B. Harden’s travels to Bulgaria, The Black Sea is the transformative journey of a man who finds unexpected connections in a small coastal Eastern European town even as he finds himself to be the only black person around.
Shot on location in Bulgaria with no script, non-actors, and local crew.
When visiting Bulgaria he noticed a lot of fans of hip hop, emphasizing one of Americas biggest exports - the culture and music of hip hop.
Synopsis: What happens when a charismatic big dreamer gets stuck in a small town on the Black Sea? A Bulgarian fortune teller once said the touch of a black man will cure you. That’s where Khalid comes in; a charismatic guy from Brooklyn who embarks on an amateur gigolo quest in a small vacation town on the Black Sea. A turn of events leaves him stuck and penniless in a town where he is the only black man around. With no place to go, he begins to embrace the cultural differences illuminating a town steeped in traditions but also a love for one of Americas greatest exports - hip hop. In his desperate efforts to get back home he is led on an unforeseen transformative journey... creating connections and finding love along the way. Crystal Moselle & Derrick B.
