DREAMBUILDER FILM, "SKIN COMPLEX", TO BE SCREENED AT
SAN FRANCISCO FESTIVAL

May 6, 2003; Cincinnati, OH: "Skin Complex", the 2003 Procter & Gamble Dreambuilder Celebration award-winning movie, has been selected from more than 100 submitted films from across the nation to be screened at the prestigious San Francisco Black Film Festival, June 11 - 15.

"Skin Complex", written by Craig J. Harris and starring Wolfgang Bodison and Tai Bennett, explores one man's pursuit of success.
Dr. Christopher Harrison is a strong, ambitious, intelligent man who believes success should be based on hard work, without regard to skin color. He is proud that he has achieved success on his own - Ivy League Ph.D., distinguished educator, active in the community. He is ashamed of those who use their skin color as an excuse or seek to gain unfair advantage based on their race. But Dr. Harrison, a black man, has always wondered what it would be like to live as a white man. He believes his potential would be unlimited.

Then he meets Maurice - a white man who had always wanted to live as a black man. Chris, born black, works to convince Maurice of the benefits of being white - while Maurice, born white, tries to convince Chris of the benefits of being black.

The movie's theme is ideally suited to the goals of the San Francisco Black Film Festival: the Festival's stated mission is to "promote Black culture through film to broad audiences. The SFBFF helps foster the collective goal of reaching out to the entire community to educate and enrich all involved about African American life, history and culture as viewed through various perspectives."

The Dreambuilder Celebration was created in 1997 to encourage inclusion and understanding of cultural diversity by sharing history, ideas and entertainment. By providing opportunities in the fields of broadcasting, journalism and the arts, the Dreambuilder Celebration honors the community and supports broadcast hopefuls from all ethnic backgrounds in pursuing their dreams.
