Countdown to ‘Pariah’ Premiere: Share the Trailer Today!

Countdown to ‘Pariah’ Premiere: Share the Trailer Today!
ELIXHER

In the age of overacting, undercasting and one-dimensional Black female characters, Focus Features’ Pariah is a refreshing coming-of-age drama. The film gods seem to have answered our angry anti-Tyler Perry tweets and wall posts protesting yet another Diary-of-Single-Lonely-Black-Lady-That-Can-Do-Bad-All-By-Herself prayers.

Now that there’s a movie with a talented black and brown cast, sensational script, breathtaking cinematography and a killer soundtrack, we need to show up in droves at theaters on December 28! (See below for a listing.)

If you still haven’t heard of Pariah, here’s the gist: Alike (pronounced “ah-lee-kay”) is a 17-year-old African American woman who lives with her parents and younger sister in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene neighborhood. A gifted student, Alike is quietly but firmly embracing her identity as a lesbian. With the support of her best friend Laura, she is especially eager to find a girlfriend. Wondering how much she can confide in her family, Alike strives to get through adolescence with grace, humor, and tenacity.

Help spread the word about this must-see film! Share the trailer today. Ready. Set. Go!
