LITTLE BROTHER is a series of 15-minute documentary films dedicated to giving Black boys a unique voice. Beginning in 2010, filmmakers NICOLE FRANKLIN and JASMIN TIGGETT take an annual look at Black boys as young as nine years old for a one-on-one conversation demystifying what society tends to rob them of: LOVE.

“It’s a rarity to see representations of black boys as they really are:  beautiful, open, curious, intelligent, funny, and vulnerable. Little Brother, a caring documentary about the hopes, dreams, and experiences of black boys is as important as it is necessary.  This endearing documentary series presents black boys as dignified and fully human, which makes Little Brother a filmic exception, rather than the rule.”
