Moon
Man Walk
by James Ijames
direction by Angelisa Gillyard
A sweet, soulful, and often surprising tale that transports us to the moon and back.
Spencer, an aspiring writer living in California, returns to his boyhood home in Philadelphia after the sudden death of his devoted single mother Esther. There, he stumbles upon a letter that shatters the elaborate fantasy Esther had concocted concerning the whereabouts of her son’s estranged father.
Journeying through Spencer’s childhood memories as he reckons with the mysteries of his past, Moon Man Walk reminds us that even in the darkest corners of the universe, love and light persist.
