Between Sins

Written & Directed by Carlos Miller

Official Selection · American Black Film Festival

After serving five years in prison, Coy returns home with the determination to avoid the people and situations that sent his life spiralling out of control. When Pudda, an old friend, comes back around expecting things to pick up where they left off, Coy’s resolve is tested, and what he had believed to be true begins to look like a lie.

The film was shot in West Palm Beach, Riviera Beach and Belle Glade, Florida, and had its world premiere at the American Black Film Festival.

A man’s face pressed close behind chain-link fencing, eyes lowered.
Two men sit at the edge of a dock looking out over open water on an overcast afternoon.
Two people bend over a bed with hands clasped in prayer, a television glowing behind them.
Two men lean close in conversation in a dim booth.
Seen through chain-link at night, a group of men stand talking under a street light.
A woman looks out across open water toward a distant shoreline.
