Soul Food
Every family needs some.
Directed by George Tillman Jr.
Produced by Edmonds Entertainment Group, Fox 2000 Pictures
A warm, family-centered ensemble comedy-drama about sisters navigating conflict and reconciliation around the ritual of Sunday dinner, grounded in themes of unity and belonging.
Traditional Sunday dinners at Mama Joe's turn sour when sisters Teri, Bird and Maxine start bringing their problems to the dinner table in this ensemble comedy. When tragedy strikes, it's up to grandson Ahmad to pull the family together and put the soul back into the family's weekly gatherings.
