Lift

Directed by Khari Streeter and DeMane Davis

With Kerry Washington, Lonette McKee, Eugene Byrd, Barbara Montgomery and Samantha Brown

This feature takes us into the world of "boosters" or shoplifters where a charismatic, intelligent young female booster from a dysfunctional family, notably her mother and grandmother, engages in the illegal occupation of shoplifting. A non-stereotypical view of how problematic family relations fed her foray into a criminal profession.
