Lewis Payton, Jr.

A college graduate goes to work as a nanny for a rich New York family. Ensconced in their home, she has to juggle their dysfunction, a new romance, and the spoiled brat in her charge.

A young woman discovers that both her husband and their new home harbor sinister secrets after they leave Manhattan for small-town life.

A man who escorts wealthy widows in New York's Upper East Side takes a young aspiring playwright under his wing.

This mockumentary sketches the reactions of five different black women as they each reflect on their singular memories of the person who helped raise them - their beloved neighborhood babysitter, Ruby Davis - following the news that she's been killed by a stray bullet.

Shame and embarrassment propel Savannah, a gifted high school student, embarks on a journey through space and time to witness the prison convictions of her great-grandmother Etta Mae, her grand-aunt Olive, and her aunt Denise. The fanciful and chilling tales of a delightfully vain maid in the 1920s, a hopelessly depressed nanny in the 1950s, and a mother frustrated during the holiday season in the 1980s, help Savannah reconcile her feelings about her own past in this touching coming-of-age story. An imaginative, thoroughly engaging drama that speaks volumes about identity and self-worth.

Centered on a Black man in an elevator on the eighteenth floor of an office building where in which each stop some White women enter the elevator, each of the White women see something different.
