Black Rain
Race and culture is commonly used to differentiate or celebrate people. On the flipside, race can be used to promote stereotypes and dissension. These superficial differences and common beliefs in people cause a disconnection; however, there sometimes takes an event to effect change in people from all walks.
It’s the winter of 2012 in Detroit, Michigan; a young man and woman drive home from separate locations after completing a long workday. An unfortunate fender bender during the commute leaves both of their automobiles damaged. It's the late evening as the two strangers await the arrival of police just outside downtown. Culturally different but otherwise similar in their stations in life; they are forced to come face to face with preconceived ideas of the other after the accident and proves to them both that where you come from doesn’t dictate where you go or who you belong with. Can their programmed bias’, engrained stereotypes of different cultures, and family prevent them from going against the grain to explore a relationship as friends or more so despite what they have been raised to believe? Can love truly be colorblind?
