To Tell A Vision

April 2022

A young black kid in 1964, New Zealand discovers a TV from the future and sees a world in which he can be a part of.

“When you’re a black kid you look for yourself wherever you go, you cannot escape your identity. You seek a likeness, that someone to look up to, someone that inspires. ‘To Tell A Vision’ put simply, is the kind of film where you can dream the unimaginable and it opens your eyes to a future where anything is possible.” – Theo Shakes
