About the Project:
Roots is a coming-of-age drama-comedy short student film shot early last year. It explores themes of identity, family, and belonging through the story of Andre, a black teenager who seeks to become closer to his white adoptive family.

Okay, but what is the film actually about?
A black teenager falsifies a paternity test in hopes of convincing his white adoptive family that he's their biological son - that's all we are comfortable sharing for now. Come to the screening to see what happens!

Parental Advisory:

This short film is unrated and contains moderate coarse language with mild sexual references. Adult supervision is recommended for young audiences.
