The first time actress Talia Howard and director Zachary Knowles work together, it's clear they make something special on screen.
But life has its own timing.
Over the years, their paths cross again and again within Jamaica's film industry-each meeting brief, each leaving behind the quiet sense that some connections never quite fade.
And when they find themselves working together once more, they must finally ask whether some stories are meant to be finished...or simply remembered.

Love Yuh Bad (New Plot & Re-write)
And I just look at her. "Ain't no n***a alive deserve to be with a woman as pretty as you," I say, pulling a spliff from my pocket, lighting it then taking a puff. She keeps her chin steady, but I see it, the way her eyes keep drifting to me and then away again. Like she's trying not to get caught up in the tension of the moment. Our eyes lock in this intense stare, neither of us willing to be the first person to break it. I drink her in, inhale everything that has me hooked around her finger, and more. We're mere inches apart, our faces hovering together, trapped in the intimacy. "Yuh think yuh deserve mi?" she replies, cocking her head to the side, the corners of her lips twitching with something between mischief and what I pray is lust. I get ready to exhale, eager to release the smoke from my spliff. Before I can, her fingers find my face, pulling it even closer to hers. My next exhale becomes her next inhale, our lips exchanging the sinful scent. "Hell nah..." I drawl, grinning at her slowly. "But me already know me aguh spend di rest a mi life trying to. Yuh know seh ah only when yuh deh beside me, me breath easy?"

In The Making
Amara Dixon has always been the kind of girl who gets it done on her own. At 21, she's balancing college, entrepreneurship, friendships, and the pressure of building the life she's always wanted. Love was never part of the plan, until she meets Ethan Calloway, a quiet, nerdy, rich guy who is nothing like anyone she expected. As their worlds collide, Amara is forced to face the one thing she's never quite mastered: letting someone in. Because while her life looks put together on the outside, she's still very much in the making.
The Book of Eve
I never cared what people thought about me. Not in Mango Valley. Not in church. Not anywhere. Then I met him. The pastor's son, everything I wasn't supposed to be drawn to. One project brought us together... and somehow, that was enough to change everything.
We Don't Do Love
Two young, free spirits live by one rule: love is a losing game. They chase thrill, freedom, and everything life can give...just never each other. But when friendship turns into undeniable chemistry, the rules blur, and the very thing they've sworn off might be the only risk worth taking.
Tempestuous Ties: A Toxic Affair
Where we wonder if it's love blooming, or hate. Azarié, who lacks the knowledge of what it is to love a woman correctly, unintentionally hurts Amiya in ways more than he ever wanted to. Amiya, meanwhile, is facing unexpected challenges in life. Though she's found comfort in Azarié, happiness still seems just out of reach for her, even for a fleeting moment.
A Twist Of Fate
Her life was anything but ordinary. Broken by those meant to protect her, she grew up knowing pain more intimately than love. Abuse and betrayal fractured her world, leaving scars no one could see. No one but him. His life seemed perfect on the outside, a façade of wealth and family bliss. But no one knew what happened behind closed doors. He had secrets too dark to share, and wounds too deep to heal alone.
DENIAL🖤.
"Yuh love mi, Niyah?" He doesn't blink when he asks. His eyes hold hers steady, not playful, not teasing. Serious. Like the answer matters more than he's willing to admit. "Love yuh more than how mi probably love mi self." The confession leaves her soft but sure. And it's the truth. The love they share isn't built on convenience. It's built on history. On knowing each other's worst moods. On arguments that didn't end in walking away. ........ -dhxnleeee🤍'!
Mr. Government Worker

You See Me Now?
The daughter of a woman too broken to love and a man too powerful to claim her. For years, she's been chasing pieces of herself in every face, every hand, every lie that looked like love. The eyes watching her are not all the same. Some see desire Some see pity And one ... sees everything she's afraid to face. But when she meets him --- the man whose gaze burns and heals in the same breath --- she begins to see herself through something other than pain. His eyes don't just look at her... they find her. Still, love in Jamaica's underworld isn't soft. It's dangerous. It tests everything she thought she knew about loyalty, forgiveness, and herself. Through betrayal, heartbreak, and rebirth, she learns that sometimes the greatest love story isn't about who finally sees you --- It's about learning to see yourself. And when she does... No one can look away.
