Naked Acts

Bridgett M. Davis's 1996 drama centers the art of movies on the legacy and the experiences of Black actresses.

It is triumphant, jarring and pulls its audience into an intimate storyline that demands to be witnessed.

The emotional engagement of the storytelling locks your interest in like a bear trap. It is a high-stakes drama that never loses momentum and elevation.

A stellar film from a filmmaker with a sharp vision for the kind of art she wants to put into this world.
