BLACKS CAN'T SWIM THE SEQUEL Documentary movie (2021) Trailer HD - Layla and K-Frost, from a South London council estate, need to swim to open up new life opportunities.
Will prejudice, stereotypes and fear stop them?
The eye opening 'Blacks Can't Swim: The Sequel' follows the success of Accura and director Mysterex's first film last year that dove into reasons why 95% of black adults and 80% of black childen in England do not swim.
The sequel combines acting and documentary style interviews with Black teens and adults in an attempt to action change from the ground up in local communities.
Layla and K-Frost are two Black teens from a south London council estate.
After enrolling in a community program designed for young adults with disadvantaged backgrounds, they soon learn that they must face their ultimate fear, the water, to complete it.
They find a mentor in Frank (Ed Accura), a new swimmer who has recently overcome his own personal barriers.
Fuelled by true testimonies, this deeply thought-provoking film tackles the age-old myth that Black people can't swim head-on.
It travels to the very root of this racial prejudice and begs the question of why?
