What happens when resources run out, unemployment is denied, and savings accounts are depleted? Darius and Josephine Blackmon find themselves living in their car with two young children. Family and friends that lent them money are no more due to their own financial hardship. Kevin Allen, a prominent school teacher, feels that he is making a difference by helping parents keep their children in school with government vouchers, filling in where the paychecks stop. Darius and his family try to keep up appearances during the day and stay out of sight at night, all while holding on to one another in a hidden America. What happens when the two men's lives cross? Written by M. Legend Brown
Reviews:
"My husband and I attended the September 15th viewing of "Hiding in Plain Sight" and absolutely enjoyed it. It wasn't just about select families falling on hard times, rather it was about so much more. It fleshed out the stories of "real people" living day to day...that had...at some point and still do...the same dreams all of us on the other side of homelessness possess. We felt for these characters, emotionally and spiritually. It shed a serious light and gave pause for an even more serious dialogue for how close we ALL are to homelessness and what each of us can do...from our own vantage points to help remedy this evergrowing epidemic. Do yourself a Huge Favor and Go See and Support this Worthwhile Film!!!" Written by EleanorThreatt on IMDb.com.
"To see the real struggle of the Blackmon family on the screen was amazing. So many times in life when we are obedient to God, we find ourselves facing challenges. It makes us question God and our path. The Blackmon family held on to their faith and each other. The bond between this husband and wife was to be modeled. The circumstances didn't tear them apart, it made them stronger. M. Legend Brown pulled out of these characters emotions that had a lasting effect on me for weeks. This movie portrayed the inner struggle of Christians in a way that was familiar to many of us. This is the story before the glory yet it's hardly ever shown. Kudos to the cast and crew for putting together such an awesome movie!!" Written by tamyra_9 on IMDb.com.
""Hiding In Plain Sight" is a socially conscious, accurate, well acted, written and directed film by rising indie film director M. Legend Brown. It tells the truetolife story of a working class family of four. The film recants the tribulations of the Blackmon family, a middle class, educated working family who fall on hard times and through the cracks of our American society. Without making a political statement or blaming anyone, it tells the real life drama currently playing out in our cities and communities to reallife families. It is shown via engaging and compelling characters in a narrative style format. Performances Along with a great and charming turn by film and television icon, Irma P. Hall, a solid performance by lead actor Kelly O'Neil Jackson with an exceptional, breakout performance for newcomer Sharice Henry Chasi in the role of Josephine Blackmon. In total, Hiding In Plain Sight, is definitely a must watch!" Written by upandown44 on IMDb.com.
"Hiding In Plain Sight tackles a tough topic that needs to be heard in America . The aftermath of the recession still exist.
M. Legend Brown creates a film that reminds us how close to home this can really be.
This film shows a very honest side of reality and how sometimes your comfortable surroundings can take a turn for the worst. This families faith is tested beyond the boundaries, but in the end their strong will leads them through the storm. Definitely a film the whole family can watch and learn from.
No matter what color you are we can still be Hiding In Plain Sight." Written by colbyp7 on IMDb.com.
