Two Films by Thomas Allen Harris: Archival filmmaker Thomas Allen Harris charts familial and personal relationships to blackness, spirituality, and sexuality in the Bronx, Tanzania, and Brazil, offering a diasporic exploration of self in É MINHA CARA & HEAVEN, EARTH + HELL is an experimental narrative documentary that incorporates African, Christian and Native American cosmologies to tell a tale of love, loss and a search for freedom in two parallel inter-racial relationships.
