ZION (Link)

Director ····Jard Lerebours
Writer....Jard Lerebours
Cinematography····Jard Lerebours
Runtime····5:56

ZION was supported by Scope of Work through their grant program serving BIPOC tristate area creatives. ZION is a new take on the Rastafarian concept of Zion, the great escape from Babylon and its oppressive structures. I envision ZION as inextricably tied to the Buddhist concept of nirvana, the release from the cycle of death and rebirth. ZION captures simplistic and mundane moments of Black joy that seek to subvert the forces against us.
