- Synopsis:
After nearly a decade exploring different facets of the African diaspora - and his own place within it - Ephraim Asili makes his feature-length debut with 'The Inheritance', an astonishing ensemble work set almost entirely within a West Philadelphia house where a community of young, Black artists and activists form a collective. A scripted drama of characters attempting to work towards political consensus - based partly on Asili's own experiences in a Black liberationist group - weaves with a documentary recollection of the Philadelphia liberation group 'Move', the victim of a notorious police bombing in 1985. Ceaselessly finding commonalties between politics, humor, and philosophy, with Black authors and radicals at its edges, 'The Inheritance' is a remarkable film about the world as we know it. - Actors:
