Amber Tamm
Amber Tamm is a young woman from Brooklyn who is a horticulturist, floral designer, community advocate, and farmer. Her life took a traumatic turn when her father
murdered her mother, shattering her love for life. It was a shocking trauma that deeply altered her being and state of mind, but through the darkness that she endured
fell a ray of sunshine that paved the foundation for her future. After coming to terms with the loss and adversity she endured, Amber ventured off into something that
she knew her mother would have loved for her to do, which was farming. The love she had for mother Earth only strengthened her convictions to follow a path in
agriculture. She collaborated with many communities around New York, building a healthy, warm, and welcoming space for black and brown people, and low-income
families. As we continue to dive into the powerful story of Amber Tamm we will gain a deeper understanding of what she's
been through and how it made her into the woman she is today.

Palm Sunday - Short Film Teaser
Based on real events in Raleigh, South Carolina... 'Palm Sunday' is a mordant ironic parable of cultural assimilation set in an impressively evoked '70s Deep South,
following a young Black Jamaican immigrant who, struck by a vision, then strives to be admitted to an all-white Baptist Church. Our "Hero" of the story, Jimmy Mcloud's
journey experiences these same familial paralyzing realizations in his own way- as he wrestles these institutions that in their construction were built to preserve and
fortify the intricacies of segregation still omnipresent in this 1970s chapter of post-colonization.
