Join us for our next installment of Afro-Picks, a CCCADI virtual talk series that highlights emerging filmmakers and films set in the communities of the African Diaspora.

Our November installment will feature the film “Daughter of the Sea” by filmmaker Alexis Garcia. After the death of her grandfather, a young woman experiences a spiritual awakening when she is called by Yemaya, the orisha Goddess of the Sea.

Our host, actor and content creator Derick James Sherrier, Jr. will sit down with Alexis to discuss specific scenes from the film and explore the building blocks of her storytelling.

You can revisit this page on November 10 at 7PM (EST) to view the program. You can also watch via our CCCADI Facebook or Youtube.
