Synopsis… Marcus Mosiah Garvey, a Jamaican-born political activist and founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), is on trial in New York in 1923. The government accuses him of mail fraud for selling stocks for the Black Star Line, a shipping line designed to forge a link between North America and Africa. Garvey sees the trial as an attempt to destroy his movement through character assassination. Dissatisfied with his lawyer, he decides to represent himself. As the trial proceeds, flashbacks show glimpses of Garvey’s life and marriage to Amy Jacques Garvey. This is the first-ever narrative film about his life.
Logline: … “Marcus Mosiah Garvey, a Jamaican-born activist, stands against 1920s racism and white supremacy, defending himself in a court trial that threatens to unravel all he has fought to achieve.”
Dir Bio: JIRARD, a versatile artist and acclaimed filmmaker, is the Co-Founder of The DigiBees, a multimedia company based in Dallas, TX. His impressive portfolio includes directing music videos for renowned artists such as Avery Sunshine, Fred Hammond, and Eric Roberson. Additionally, he has lent his talents as a Director of Photography to several short and feature-length films. His narrative directorial debut ‘Mosiah’ is the first-ever narrative film about Marcus Garvey. Currently, he is working on ‘Colour Treatment’, a series of documentaries that critically examine black representation in mainstream media, tracing its development and analyzing its impact on contemporary culture and society.
Dir. Statement/In this project, I found an opportunity to be the first to shine this type of light on Garvey and his trial – to humanize him while still crafting the image of a proud, righteously driven man who somehow continuously finds the strength to persevere, even amid a storm of adversity.
