After serving 38 years in prison for the rape and murder of an 8-year-old girl, David Bryant maintained his innocence. With the help of a non profit organization, he is finally released and sent home, but nothing could prepare him for what would happen next.

Hey family. I'm producing a 4-part docuseries called Silent Wombs, a deeply personal exploration of my journey to heal my endometriosis and the community of women I'm discovering along the way.
On Saturday, May 23rd, you're invited to see a sneak peek.
🤝🏾Join me at HELD IN FRAME, a film screening event hosted inside @phyllis.iller 's powerful Held: Black Women and the Womb exhibition at the Nina Baldwin Gallery in Atlanta.
From 3–6PM, I'll be screening an exclusive sizzle reel alongside other incredibly talented filmmakers who, like me, decided to turn their pain into art.
This is just the beginning. Come witness it with me.
📍 Nina Baldwin Gallery | 309 Peters St SW, Atlanta
