I'm not crying, you're crying!

A tug at the heart strings that masterfully shows the trials and triumphs of life. Its a touching reminder to love and cherish those closest to you. This story not only grabs you through a journey by the hand, but grabs you at the heart. A must-watch.

A film from the heart and full of love

Camrus takes a story from his personal life and creates a universal message that everyone can relate to. I feel like given the world we've been in the last year or so, seeing a story about family and holding on to those that matter to you is something we could all use now. Deeply moving and heartfelt, this story really is an inspiration and a wonderful tribute to the kind of love we all experience at one point or another.

A touching, inspirational tear-jerker.

I saw this film at a festival in New York City earlier this year, and WOW. What an emotional experience! There wasn't a dry eye in the house. It is a bold, beautifully-written piece by Camrus Johnson. Even if you somehow don't have a free five minutes to watch this film, make time; you won't be disappointed.

I'm Not Crying, You Are!

What a powerful message to Black men and their fathers! This is the kind of work and message that we should be seeing more of. Kudos to Camrus for being so vulnerable and inviting us to witness a piece of the fabric that has woven his life's Journey.

way to make me cry

Camrus really made a beautiful piece here.. yes, the animation is stunning but Camrus' voice behind the story is heartbreaking and raw. We need more content like this.. It's beautiful and makes you think of your own family.. and what makes them superheroes to you.
