Devotion

alice-jasmine-richards-walking-home-from-schoolDevotion a film by Dawn Wilkinson

Alice, a bi-racial eleven-year-old girl, has recently lost her mother in a car accident due to her father’s drunk driving.  As father and daughter begin a new life, Alice is haunted by nightmares and memories of her mother’s death, and the new woman in her father’s life.  Alice’s identification with her mother who was white, and reluctant forgiveness of her father, who is black, forms the heart of this bi-racial coming of age story.

DEVOTION marks the feature debut of writer/director Dawn Wilkinson and introduces Jasmine Richards in a remarkable performance as Alice.
