Tanya Fear in "A Moving Image" — Tanya Fear in “A Moving Image”

Indie filmmaker Shola Amoo’s feature film “A Moving Image” makes its worldwide debut at the LA Film Festival on June 5^th at 2pm in the World Fiction Competition (see our previous coverage HERE).

In anticipation of the premiere, Amoo has released a brand-new trailer for the film. The previous version mostly served as a tool for the production’s past crowdfunding campaign.

See the new trailer right below:

“A Moving Image” is a multimedia feature film about gentrification in Brixton, incorporating fiction, documentary and performance art. The film stars Tanya Fear, who was also featured in Amoo’s festival favorite film “Touch,” as Nina, a young stifled artist who returns to her community after a long absence – and is soon painted as a symbol of gentrification. As she struggles with her own complicity, we follow her mission to create a piece of art that can bring her community together. On her journey, the filmmakers speak to real people affected by gentrification in Brixton, as well as internationally, blurring the line between reality and fiction.

Follow “A Moving Image” on its website and check it out the LA Film Festival.
