RFF "Short Program II"

John D. O'Bryant - Northeastern University
Boston, MA


....ellipsis.... - 14 minutes

One fallen patriarch. Three warring brothers. A single heir to throne.And a legacy of ruthlessness that won't go away.

Be The Man - 15 minutes

In "Be the Man," 17-year-old Damien never realized that the only man he's ever looked up to might not be the best example of what it means to be a man. Damien's verbally abusive father has taught him to be strong, but that tough shell means trouble when Damien starts to treat his girlfriend the same way he's seen his parents interact. "Be the Man" dramatically explores a young man's coming of age in a harsh, sometimes cruel world.

Pop Foul - 20 minutes

A boy sees his father take a 'beat down' from a local thug on the way home from a Little League game. When they arrive home, the father demands the boy say nothing to his mother about the father's swelling black eye, but the two are caught whispering at the door before they are able to corroborate their stories. The mother presses them for information, and they coincidentally tell the same lie. Afterward, however, the father reprimands the boy for having said anything at all. Angry at the betrayal, the boy vengefully tells his mother the truth, only to be betrayed by her in the name of his father's pride. The boy's resulting rage culminates in the ultimate betrayal of the only friend he knows.

Testify - 12 minutes

In TESTIFY, we discover the truth behind a broken relationship between a father, prominent Southern Baptist Pastor Cyrus Biggs, and his son Gene. After Sunday's service, Pastor Biggs is informed by a familiar, yet unannounced visitor, that it is imperative that he goes to visit his son. The Pastor and son meet and a new revelation is revealed.
