CELEBRATING JAMAICAN WOMEN❤️🇯🇲
Love to all the women that played a role in the creation of this film. This post celebrates you!
From our writer, Natasha Griffith, to our lead female Rachel Seaton. Our support cast Annalise McLure, Alysia Francis, Jordan Subaran and Ally Fatta. My amazing mother aka our production coordinator Michelle Williams, and stylist/art department Trudi Hamilton. Big thanks to Rene Redwood who did the amazing VFX seen in the scene and menu cards. Finally, thank you to the LA crew Demi and Saria for modeling the merch so well!
It’s been a pleasure working with all of you, love and respect! 🙏🏿❤️

Young film-maker JP Williams is encouraging Jamaicans to see the island through a different lens, not simply as a tourist destination, but as a source of healing, reflection and renewal.

Jamaican filmmaker @jpxwillo continues to make waves on the global film stage 🌍🎬.
His short film "BLV" pronounced believe had its African premiere at the 2025 Zanzibar International Film Festival, where he was honoured with the Chairman’s Award for his contribution to cinema.
From "The 1938 Unrest" to "BLV", Williams is proving that Jamaican stories are powerful and resonant well beyond our shores. 🇯🇲✨

Before the film was called ‘BLV’, it was titled ‘But, I Fly!’—a play on the word “butterfly.” In the film, I use the analogy of a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly to highlight that sometimes we may feel small and insignificant. However, through our development (the cocoon stage), we gain the protection we need to flourish and spread our wings.
“Yes, I have challenges. Yes, I have setbacks. But, I fly!”
Here are a few of my favorite clips from the Beyond The Scenes of my film BLV. The link to the full version is in my bio!
#BLV
Nothing beats the feeling of being on set. It’s been a year since we filmed BLV, so editing this was super nostalgic. Being able to relive some of these moments was great. I am grateful for the gifts God has granted 🌞
In this one, I take you Beyond The Scenes — a raw and archival insight into the making of BLV!
This footage was “lost” for the whole year! I found it a few days ago and put this edit together in 48 hours.
+ Share with someone who loves filmmaking.
Enjoy 🙏🏿
