"What's it like watching your son grow up?" Four8 has unveiled an official trailer for a new short film titled I Am Mary, premiering on their YouTube channel soon. I Am Mary follows in the footsteps of Four8's previous shorts in their trilogy – I Am Joseph and I Am Pilate – which "reintroduce biblical characters in timeless settings, expanding on their individual journeys and providing audiences with the opportunity to connect with these human stories." Essentially, I Am Mary is a re-imagining of the story of Mary, mother of Jesus, but set in modern times and featuring Black characters in the main roles. Continuing with Four8's commitment to champion emerging Black British and diverse talent behind and in front of the camera, the film is directed by award-winning filmmaker Sheila Nortley (David is Dying, Zion, Victim) and written by Kay Jegede (Lara and The Beat), with moving performances by Colette Dalal Tchantcho (Domina, The Witcher) as Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Raksha Hoost. Call me crazy, but it actually looks quite good. ›››
