Make sure to take advantage of your exclusive priority registration window, after which all Film Independent Members will have the opportunity to register.

Join us for Love, Brooklyn on Wednesday, August 20.

A writer (André Holland, Moonlight) navigates complicated relationships with his ex, an art gallery owner (Nicole Beharie, The Morning Show), and his current lover, a newly-single mother (DeWanda Wise, She’s Gotta Have It), with the support of his best friend (Roy Wood Jr., The Daily Show). A modern romance set against the rapidly changing landscape of Brooklyn, New York.

The film premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, and was an official selection of the 2025 San Francisco Int’l. Film Festival; the 2025 Cleveland Int’l. Film Festival; and the 2025 Blackstar Film Festival, where it won Favorite Feature Narrative.
