This film in particular is very different from the other films I’ve reviewed on this website. This film is a documentary created by a good friend of mine, fellow Howard University student Quaran Ahmad. I had the privilege of attending the screening and actually being face to face with the creative voices that put this production together. The film gave viewers a behind the scenes look at the BURN event, an event also curated by Quaran that documents the creative and personal journeys of different Howard students. The event itself included everything from student interviews to elaborate fashion shows & art galleries. Besides the fantastic editing and cinematography of the documentary itself, capturing these moments that made up the creative process behind curating BURN, it was quite incredible to see young adults of all types and all walks of life come together as one for this celebration of creative expression, and I am definitely looking forward to seeing what everyone involved with this project has in store for the near or distant future.
