The Alliance Theatre Presents “Tell Me”

a Film by Marquelle Young

Produced by Small Onion Studios

A couple argues. 

Two men fight on the street. 

In the middle of the chaos sits Bennie, a black man, who in pure despair looks to a therapist,  Dr. Gerald as a last resort to navigate the pitfalls of his current romantic relationship. 

As the sessions commence, he realizes there is more for him to unravel in the tangled and traumatic past that haunts him. As secrets from his past reveal frightening obstacles in his present that threaten him as he faces the most difficult decision of his life: to speak or not to speak.
