Mabry reflects on how films served as a bridge between her and her mother in the Jim Crow South, opening conversations that transcended the screen.
Mabry was given the screenplay based on 'The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat' by Gina Prince-Bythewood, after impressing her with previous work.
During her pitch for the film, Mabry felt such a connection to the material that she became emotional, considering it a potential failure.
Mabry’s profound connection to the characters in the story made her realize that this was the project she was destined to direct.
