Here’s some info on the film:
CANAL STREET is a faith-filled and timely portrayal of racial and class conflicts ripped from today’s headlines, where young men of color are often guilty until proven innocent. After the murder of a white classmate, all eyes fall on Kholi Styles (Gray), and it is up to his father (Williamson), an up-and-coming lawyer from the south side of Chicago, to prove his son is not the monster the world has made him out to be. This inspirational film will be entertaining for audiences of all ages.
Canal Street is directed, co-written and produced by Rhyan LaMarr. The film boasts a veteran multi-ethnic cast which includes Bryshere Gray (“Empire”), Mykelti Williamson (“Fences”), Mekhi Phifer (“Divergent”), Woody McClain (“The Bobby Brown Story”), Lance Reddick (“John Wick”), and Kevin Quinn (“Bunk’d”). Grammy Award winning record executive Amir Windom (Bruno Mars, Pharrell) executive produced the film and also music supervised the film.
