The Blessed Kente of the Amobis

Directed by Amira Jackson

Director Amira Jackson's drama short follows the Amobi family as they unite in the face of a supernatural curse, channeling their heritage and collective love into the creation of a Kente cloth intended to ward off vengeful spirits. Rich in family drama, cultural identity, and spiritual weight, the film is a unique addition to Black independent cinema. A powerful short about community, tradition, and the protective power of art.
