The Sundance Winner / A THOUSAND AND ONE : Official Trailer [HD] – Starring Teyana Taylor, Aaron Kingsley Adetola, Adriane Lenox

“A love letter to mothers, sons, and hustlers of NYC.” Focus Features has unveiled a new trailer for an indie drama titled “A Thousand and One,” an Sundance Grand jury Prize winner drama about a family in Harlem growing up and struggling to get by. 

A THOUSAND AND ONE” follows unapologetic and free-spirited Inez (Teyana Taylor), who kidnaps her six-year-old son Terry from the foster care system. Holding onto their secret and each other, mother and son set out to reclaim their sense of home, identity, and stability, in a rapidly changing New York City.

Newcomer Teyana Taylor stars as Inez, along with Aaron Kingsley Adetola, Aven Courtney, Josiah Cross, William Catlett, Terri Abney, Delissa Reynolds, Amelia Workman, and Adriane Lenox. 

“I feel like as a New Yorker I’m honored to be making a film about the city the way other filmmakers I admire did, like Spike Lee, Scorsese, Woody Allen,” Rockwell told IndieWire. “They’re just really known as New York people making New York films, but I was making a heartbreak letter more than a love letter. I didn’t really feel like I had a lot of examples of that to criticize in my own way. New York broke my heart.”

A.V. Rockwell’s “A THOUSAND AND ONE” is only in theaters March 31
