Film Independent Members, you and a guest are invited to watch BMF, Episode 107 (“All in the Family”), in our Film Independent Presents Online Screening Room, powered by Vision Media. A special pre-recorded conversation with director/executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, showrunner Randy Huggins, and actors Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., Da’Vinchi, Michole Briana White and Steve Harris, moderated by Kelley L. Carter (Senior Entertainment Writer, The Undefeated), is included as part of this screening experience.

BMF is inspired by the true story of two brothers, Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory ( Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr.) and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory (Da’Vinchi), from the inner-city streets of southwest Detroit in the late 1980s, who fostered the most prominent drug trafficking organization in the U.S., known as “Black Mafia Family.”

This series explores the brothers’ lives, their family dynamics and their relationship with the community in an authentic manner that highlights their upbringing in a traditional family unit. Their parents Charles Flenory (Russell Hornsby) and Lucille Flenory (Michole Briana White), as well as their spiritual advisor Pastor Swift (Snoop Dogg), push the brothers to pursue formal educations. The tension between Meech and Terry’s blood family and the criminal family they formed to eradicate poverty from their lives creates inner conflict as the brothers pursue the ever-elusive American Dream.

All eight episodes of BMF are now available from STARZ.
