Love Story

A Love Story" is a metaphor for the history and current state

Synopsis: The short film "Us: A Love Story" is a metaphor for the history and current state of Blacks and Whites in America. This story is told through the paradigm of a couple sharing a large house (America). A Black woman and a White man living under the torment of domestic violence. The cycles of abuse, the struggle for power, the social, physical, spiritual, psychological torment - the confusion, the misunderstanding; the need for, and fear of separation, as well as a twisted view of love are all relevant. America is an abusive household. This film asks the question, how can this union consecrated in blood work, much less last? It answers the question, why can't WE just get over IT? It is a simple tale, in a simple setting with two characters fighting for their lives.
