- (1888PressRelease) February 12, 2025 - The highly anticipated film adaptation of the best-selling novel "Stronger" will celebrate its HBCU premiere on Saturday, February 15, 2025, at Howard University’s Blackburn University Center in Washington, DC. Stronger embraces the Black History Month theme with a compelling love, resilience, and transformation narrative.
Directed by Emmy-nominated Harold Jackson III and written by acclaimed author Brandi Forte, "Stronger" stars Leslie Black (Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist), Adrian Lockett (Twisted Hearts), and Quenton Alexander in a powerful story that captures the essence of Black love and loss during Washington D.C.'s historic "Chocolate City" era.
Synapse:
The film follows Dream Angelou, a college-educated single mother from Santa Monica, California, as she navigates career ambitions, new love, and personal challenges in Washington D.C. Drawing comparisons to classics like "Love Jones" and "Poetic Justice," "Stronger" offers a fresh perspective on contemporary Black romance while tackling themes of mental health, addiction, and personal growth.
