Braddy (producer),

Plot: An African American California born hip-hop girl resists the ancestral call of the Senegalese dance "Sabar". When she finally gives in, she discovers more than a dance - she finds herself. AISHA grew up dancing, all she knows is hip-hop and cannot understand the craziness about African dance. On a dare, she goes to an African dance class "just to see her friend" but when she leaves, the drum beats follow her and haunt her. Soon this hip-hop girl becomes a much talked about future "Queen of Sabar" and everyone is amazed at her effortless and captivating skills. The city of Oakland, California can hardly wait to see Aisha perform at the upcoming Sabar dance festival. But life has a way of dealing us cards that will test our very core and Aisha's cards were waiting in the wings. Set against the backdrop of the African dance movement in the United States, Sabar is a dramatic feature film about the triumph of the human spirit in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Sabar examines how we constantly negotiate and choreograph our way through the bigger and sometimes arrhythmic dance called LIFE.

Eddie's new wife, Lonnie, an ex-stripper from Memphis, forces the brothers to confront the silent anger that has evolved over years of estrangement after having an affair with her husbands brother. Infidelities are discovered and the bond between family and a new love are stretched to their limits forcing Eddie to decide what is more important, blood or love. Telling both his brother and wife to leave, he forces himself into a period of self examination that lures his soul to become what he despises. He confronts both his brother and then his wife, finding no resolution in their remorse. Following a night of trials he is revisited by his brother the next morning seeking the one memento he wishes to keep to remember their parents, his father's hat. This symbol of the brothers parents forces the stifled flames of their relationship to the surface and the struggle of tough love is discovered. Things that couldn't be spoken are brought out and separation is the only healing potion. The drama that ensues is heart wrenching and tragic, and tests the limits and the very meaning of the word, family.

Quotes:

Elliot: You know, I still can't picture you two having sex.::Paula: Oh, wait a minute! You can't picture me *making love* with my successful, clean-shaven husband, who wears Paul Stuart suits, but you can see me jumping into bed with a guy that I have to lend money to, pay alimony to, who hasn't washed that tee-shirt since, like, Christmas?::Elliot: Chanukah.::George: See you, Elliot.::Paula: See you, George. [George leaves]::Elliot: Bet he never gave you eight orgasms.::Paula: Oh Elliot, when are you going to realize sex is only part of a well-integrated life? Besides, half of those were faked.::Elliot: Four is not so bad!

Elliot: [to gay son Danny] So, ummm: Pussy! What d'ya say?::Danny: Uhhh...::Elliot: Danny, pussy's not so bad. Just like an asshole, it's smooth, it's silky, AND... it doesn't chafe.::Danny: You seem to know a lot about assholes, Pop.::Elliot: Been one all my life.

Elliot: [reading from his printed leaflet] Okay: The Losingest Loser Bares All. I have an unusually small penis. And while it's okay walking around my bedroom, it's hell in a locker room.

Elliot: [reading from his printed leaflet] That was right about the time my beautiful wife Paula was leaving me for the architect who designed the house we could no longer afford. A handsome, athletic man with a six-figure income and a pleasant, respectful manner. [pause] I know I'll never get over loving her for the rest of my life.

Elliot: [reading from his printed leaflet] So here I am, gang - kicked out of a job and a house, scrounging from my mom, my ex-wife, my son, and guess what: my oldest friend Richard is coming to town, and I beg him to stay with me. Richard has kept his hair, his looks, his money; and pretty much runs Hollywood. You'd think he wouldn't have the time of day for his old buddies back East. You know, he's never once turned his back on me. Not once. Always kind, totally open, lends me money, and never asks for it back. And how do I reciprocate that kind of generosity and friendship? Well to this day I'v hidden a little secret from Richard. In college, when I was dating Allison, before he stole her from me, I fucked the lovely Allison, up the ass, when we had gotten drunk on a pitcher full of frozen strawberry daiquiris, and she came with the most intense shudder I have ever felt. Richard, Richard has kissed my wife, french-kissed her way back when, but he didn't butt-fuck her, like I did his. And I'm so ashamed that I've never told him this before. So there you have it. Elliot Kellman, biggest loser of them all.::Richard: Y'know Elliot, how I said that, uh, nothing much ever happened between me and Paula? Well she must've sucked me off a dozen times in the pantry while Allison was playing Legos with the kids in the den. And you, you were outside by the barbecue, making your crummy, lousy, tasteless, overcooked ersatz-mesquite chicken.
