FILMOGRAPHY
In a Harlem family, struggling to survive in the ghetto, Fay Mulberry (Milira Jones) is an ambitious teen who is determined to escape the heartbreaking cycle of drugs and violence that has become a scourge on the streets she calls home. Her hopes of escape depend upon the promise of a college scholarship, but Fay finds her narrow window of opportunity closing fast. A brief romance with a smooth-talking drug dealer (Robert Laney) causes Fay to lose sight of her goal and forces her into a compromising decision she is not ready to face. Before she knows it, Fay's dreams are shattered, and when opposing forces meet, it is a regrettable day for all involved. Special appearances include rap legend Ice-T, Vaughn Harper, Crazy Sam, Caribbean rap sensation Mad Lion, and recording artist Milira Jones.

The Lights on 9/11 (2026)
3 days after the tragic attack on the world trade center Paul Eliacin volunteered his services through his union, Theatrical Teamsters 817 and became a First Responder at Ground Zero. While there, Paul realized that there was no one documenting or taking any footage. Hence, Paul picked up a camera and recorded six hours of never seen before footage and took over two hundred and fifty never seen before photos. The photos/footage have been stored in a vault until 2026. He is now using this material to produce a new documentary, The Lights On 9/11, that will showcase stories of grief, courage and recovery stemming from said day. This is about honoring victims, First Responders, and those who have lived to tell the tale.
Due to spending numerous hours at Ground Zero, Paul has been severely impacted by disabling 9/11 related conditions. Paul has shortness of breath, chronic coughs and has been certified by the Mount Sinai medical treatment program for (PTSD) post-traumatic stress disorder, chronic rhinosinusitis and other illnesses. He now has to attend an annual treatment program at Mount Sinai.
It is anticipated that The Lights on 9/11 will premiere in 2027.
