 A CITY CALLED HEAVEN

A Philippe-Richard Marius Production

A Hugh Thompson Film

Sister Glen Moore's dying wishes include a eulogy by Jesse Jackson; a spiritual delivered by "the big opera star" Benita Cross; and a final face-to-face with her estranged mother, the redoubtable Mrs. Gertrude Hudson.  Reverend Dexter, of Brooklyn's New Canaan Church, must rely on his full reserves of wisdom, patience and heavenly guidance to negotiate the late sister's exquisitely orchestrated funeral and the little secret that she carries with her to the grave...

New York Actor's Studio members, Gerald Orange and Linette Hardie, are featured in this independently produced film inspired by true events.

A City Called Heaven was an official selection of the New York African Diaspora Film Festival, The Los Angeles Pan-African Film Festival, and The Pan African Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou.
