Right before its SXSW premiere, the documentary, This One’s For The Ladies has been acquired by NEON.
The description: “On Thursday evenings, a children’s karate school transforms into a male strip joint. Hundreds of women convene for a potluck fundraiser and the opportunity to throw singles at the hot New Jersey Nasty Boyz. This One’s For The Ladies isn’t just about the tips or the dancing. It’s a heartwarming story about friendship, community, these incredible women and the resilience they show toward whatever comes their way.”
In a statement, Graham, a Brooklyn-based filmmaker said, “I’m thrilled NEON saw the beauty in our Ladies and totally gets this movie. This One’s For The Ladies is for and about black women. It’s a celebration of their lives and their truth. I can’t wait to bring it to audiences everywhere.”
The film is premiering in the Documentary Feature Competition section at SXSW.
