In the vein of Love Jones, Love & Basketball and The Best Man, Lesson Before Love is a contemporary story of modern professional African Americans looking for a happily ever after.
The film was a hit on the festival circuit, taking home the Best Drama Award at the San Diego Black Film Festival, the Audience Award at Urban Mediamakers Film Festival, and screened at the Hollywood Black Film Festival, Bronzelens Film Festival, and New Voices in Black Cinema.
Eric, Alexis, Cullen and Janae are all single and unsatisfied living their monochromatic lives. The contentious, first time meeting between on-line chat buddies, Eric and Alexis, brings about a torrent of emotion as they all meet up for a night on the town. After which, they begin to experience love lessons that force them to search their own hearts and passion for the love that has long eluded them.
Director Dui Jarrod said, “Every young filmmaker maker has a hope and a dream. Most time, that dream involves access to their work on a grand scale. When I sat down to write this project, I could have never imagined our film getting nationwide DVD distribution. Its a fitting beginning to my film career and fitting end to this film. I pray people continue to discover it in the days, weeks and years to come.”
