Ephraim Asili’s THE INHERITANCE weaves histories of the West Philadelphia–based MOVE Organization, the Black Arts Movement, and dramatizations of the life of the filmmaker when he was a member of a Black activist collective.

Centering on what Asili describes as a “speculative reenactment” of his time in a West Philadelphia collective, the actors scripted lives on set are entwined with cameos by MOVE's Debbie Africa, Mike Africa Sr., and Mike Africa Jr., and poet-activists Sonia Sanchez and Ursula Rucker.

THE INHERITANCE is co-presented with the DocYard, an award-winning film and discussion series at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
