Another melanated cast will be taking over the screen for some poetic visuals in the upcoming flick The Last Black Man in San Francisco.
According to Shadow & Act, the movies stars newcomer Jimmie Fails and it’s inspired by a short he did with filmmaker Joe Talbot back in 2017. Partially based off Fails’ life, the story follows a Black man trying to keep his family home against the backdrop of a gentrifying San Francisco. Fails and his oddball best friend Montgomery, who both reside in the city’s last Black neighborhood, search for a sense of belonging in the rapidly changing city that seems to no longer understand them.
