“That’s why we went down the faux-documentary path,” Adanne adds. “We wanted to have a conversation about truth, about what is and what isn’t truth. What’s in between the lines of truth. What’s one person’s truth that isn’t another persons truth. This is a conversation we need to have. Nobody talks about this in the Black church,”Adamma continues. “Maybe it’ll be received in the way that we want, which is simply for people to do what we were doing our entire lives: Asking questions, not just being complicit and just taking things at face value.”
