JEANNE JORDAN & STEVEN ASCHER
The story of acclaimed artist Beverly McIver and her promise to take her mentally disabled sister Renee when their mother dies — a promise that comes due just as Beverly's career is taking off.
"In a notable fusion of subject and film, the same themes that fuel the artist’s distinguished body of work—race, class, family, disability—propel this cinematic portrait. Both are a testament to the transformative power of art. " -- Full Frame
"McIver is a pure, effervescent delight." - Slant Magazine
