About this listen

Love + Grit celebrates all things Philly and the BlackStar Film Festival was full of Philly legends and up-and-comers including Emmy Award winner and Mural Arts Philadelphia Black Artists fellow Simone Holland. Simone initially came to the film festival as a cinematographer for another BlackStar Fellow project and returned a second time as a fellow herself. Live from the Daily Jawn Stage at the Kimmel Cultural Campus, Justin and Laiya talk with Simone about her premiere film, All That’s Left. The film challenges the perspective of existing, longing for acceptance, all around the epicenter of one's life: the kitchen table. We also had to quiz the audience on Philly’s TV and film influences. Can you finish the lyrics to the “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” theme song? Can you name the Netflix western based on Philly’s urban riding club?
