Compensation Q&A at BlackStar (2025) | Zeinabu Irene Davis

Panel discussion for the movie COMPENSATION at the Blackstar Film Festival featuring director Zeinabu Irene Davis, Mark Arthur Chery, Michelle A Banks and Portia Cobb. Moderated by Ashley Clark, curator of The Criterion Collection. Compensation is available now on Blu-Ray and on The Criterion Channel. Zeinabu Irene Davis directs this lyrical tale about a pair of tragic love stories, each about a deaf woman and a man without hearing impairment. The first narrative concerns an ambitious seamstress and an illiterate sharecropper in the 1900s, while the second focuses on a hearing impaired dancer and a rakish librarian set in the 1990s. ------ Reelblack TWO, is our backup YouTube Channel that carries New Original content plus Classics from The Reelblack Vault that will be monetized.
