WHITEWASH NYC Theatrical Release

We are proud to share that WHITEWASH -which premiered with us at the 2009 NYSFF - is opening this Friday for its NYC Theatrical release @ Quad Cinemas.

WHITEWASH, the documentary, is a film exploring the complexity of race in America through the eyes of the ocean. Examining the history of “black consciousness” as it triumphs and evolves into the minds of black surfers, we learn the power of transcending race as a constructive phenomenon. The story is narrated by the legendary, Grammy Award winner Ben Harper (Fistful of Mercy, Relentless 7, Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals) along with Tariq “Blackthought” Trotter of the Grammy Award winning hip hop group, The Roots whom also originally scored the film. (Running time 1:18)

A long road traveled - it’s amazing to see our filmmakers goals achieved.  Please support Ted Woods, Airrion Copeland & the Trespass Productions crew -grab some popcorn and head out this weekend to check out the film!
