Synopsis: Kwabena (Adjani Salmon) is on the hunt for his first directing gig. Having previously “sold out” his cousin during the making of his short film, he is determined to avoid repeating the same mistake. When the opportunity to direct the radical color-blind historical drama “Sin and Subterfuge” arises, Kwabena thinks his dreams have come true. However, things aren’t quite as they seem, and he realizes how difficult it is to create something with integrity as he peers behind the curtain of a “progressive” industry.
In season two, when the chance to direct a color-blind historical drama arises, Kwabena thinks his dreams have come true. However, things aren’t quite as they seem. (Courtesy Paramount+, 2026)
