Washington, DC. - OmeProductions LLC Films announces that Al Sura Inc. will present "FINDING ME: TRUTH" in Washington, DC, May 26, 2012, 5:00p.m. at the Naval Heritage Center. The romantic drama, directed by Roger S. Omeus, Jr., centers around a group of love-and-sex-obsessed friends navigating the joys, and pratfalls, of relationships. The film is the exciting follow-up to the crowd pleaser, "FINDING ME." Both films are excitingly rare yet essential entertainment focusing on the queer, African-American experience. "I'm really excited about bringing my film to DC, " says Roger S. Omeus, Jr., writer-director-producer of "Finding Me: Truth" and "Finding Me." "Black Pride is a great event to showcase my romantic comedy, and I can't wait to see the audience reaction to the story. Also, after the screening there will be sneak peek clip to the upcoming Finding Me The Series." "Al Sura is proud to present this important self-affirming event. It is crucial that young black LGBT are able to self-identify and see images of themselves on the large and small screens of cinema and television" states Rahim Briggs, Al Sura President. In the tradition of "Punks" and Logo TV's "Noah Arc" "FINDING ME: TRUTH" turns its fresh, playful lens on the loves, losses, fights and jealousies of a group of close-knit friends in Jersey City. Faybien (RayMartell Moore), who is sweet, bright-eyed and emotionally vulnerable, is comfortable with his "gayness" but is wrestling with some self-esteem issues. His love life is put into an emotional spin when his ex-boyfriend, Lonnie (Derrick L. Briggs), returns wanting to reignite their relationship. Faybien's friends, who regularly are supportive, are dealing with their own dramas including Reggie (Eric Joppy), who is in love with a non-committal bisexual, high-strung "queen bee" Amera (J'Nara Corbin) is certain that her boyfriend is cheating on her. And muscular, sexy Jaylen (Maurice Murell) is too busy confronting his rough trade boyfriend's girlfriend. The film is edited, written and directed by Roger S. Omeus, Jr., who also produced with Sontaia Briggs ("Finding Me"). "FINDING ME: TRUTH" had its New York theatrical premiere at the Cinema Village, September 2011, has played to enthusiastic audiences in multiple cities (Houston, Atlanta and Boston) and won the Centerpiece selection at the 4th Annual Queer Black Cinema Film Festival in Brooklyn. Al Sura Inc. is a Washington, DC based 501(c) (3) non-profit and public charity foundation whose mission is to promote grassroots communication, education and awareness in the fight against HIV/AIDS within the African-American community.      ©2012 Wassup N ATL | 111 Cone Street Atlanta, GA 30303
