Dream
Street: A Feature Film
"Dream Street" can best be described
as an edgy, character driven urban drama. The
riveting story follows the bitter sweet journey of Lola
Mars, a once promising hip-hop music writer/producer,
as she struggles to rebuild her life and dreams after
a freak accident leaves her disfigured, outcast and
financially bankrupt. The beguiling, tragic and
ultimately uplifting theme explores the ability of the
human spirit to rise above hardships and overcome the
blows that life often deals those on the fringes of
society.

Man, Ruby Dee, Tyson Beckford,
Jim Brown, Anthony Chisholm,
