Not exactly a debut, Radha is best known as a playwright and stand up - her birth date is not known. A sharp and funny (e.g. theatre director explaining the soya milk symbolism) look at modern day Harlem and the creative process (and aging). Somewhat long, nicely shot in black and white widescreen (subtly fading into colour at the end) by Eric Branco.
With Peter Kim as her friend and agent, Oswin Benjamin the writer of tracks, Haskiri Velazquez her adoring student, Imani Lewis, Antonio Ortiz, T.J. Atoms, Reed Birney (theatre producer). With amusing commentary by various people from the hood, and the interjections of a homeless man.
