Director X introduced the video to a captivated crowd at the exclusive event that featured a moderated discussion on Black love with Director X himself and Raquel “Rocky” Harris followed by a swanky cocktail reception with sounds provided by notable DJ Brian Henry.
“Making this film has been a proud moment in my career and I’m thrilled to share it with the world,” said Director X during the presentation. “This film was about real Black Love and the diversity of it. And how varied it is, yet still singular.”
