Founded in 2010, The Emerging Lens Film Festival is a production of The Charles Taylor Theatre and Media Arts Association. The mandate of the association is to educate, empower and inspire by honouring the influence of African Canadian and other cultural filmmakers and to bring recognition to their work.
To acknowledge the educational power of video, media arts and theatre that is rich in wonder, honest compassion and wisdom.
To present the unique work of our cultural filmmakers and to create a larger appreciation for their cultural stories.
To be a training ground for our youth storytellers, filmmakers and performers.
After an argument with his sister about her choice of boyfriend, a young Black man spends the day blowing off steam, striking a psychological blow to a white male after believing he is being profiled—an encounter that becomes much more after he discovers that his target is closer than he could ever expect.
