Filly Brown
This is my life.
Directed by Michael D. Olmos, Youssef Delara
Produced by Cima Productions, Olmos Productions
A coming-of-age drama about a young hip-hop artist navigating the tension between artistic integrity and survival, grounded in family loyalty and the struggle for authenticity.
“Majo” Tonorio, a.k.a. Filly Brown, is a raw, young Los Angeles hip-hop artist who spits from the heart. When a sleazy record producer offers her a crack at rap stardom, Majo faces some daunting choices. With an incarcerated mother, a record contract could be the ticket out for her struggling family. But taking the deal means selling out her talent and the true friends who helped her to the cusp of success.
