I am a Gun – Stephen Graham (written by)
The death of a loved one sends Blacka, a young Black male, further down the criminal pathway, where violent crimes and terror are the norm. Mya is a beautiful Black young female, conscious of her people’s past and focused on the future.
They say opposites attract; will this attraction change the way Blacka views life, and how he lives it, or has Blacka’s love for the streets and violent outbursts become his own destruction? Written from a gun’s perspective, one can only imagine the level of its attribution to crime, murder, division, and other problematic situations which plagues the black community. The tragic incidences which occur in this script reflect real life situations that young males and females find themselves in once drawn into the lifestyle of the streets.
