‘A Nashville Legacy’: original movie to premiere at PAFF 2023 Film & Arts Festival

“A Nashville Legacy,” an original movie from Crown Media’s Mahogany and Hallmark Movies and Mysteries will premiere at The Pan African Film & Arts Festival on February 18 at 5:00 pm.

PAFF is America’s largest Black History Month event and is the largest Black film festival.

Each year, it screens more than 200 films made by and/or about people of African descent from the United States, Africa, the Caribbean, South America, the South Pacific, Latin America, Europe and Canada, and increasingly Asia.

In “A Nashville Legacy,” Naima (Andrea Lewis) has recently moved to Nashville, where she is getting her doctorate while interning as a curator at a Nashville museum. The tales her late grandmother shared about the old days in Music City during the 1950s provided a fascination that led music enthusiast Naima back to her grandmother’s old haunts. As she begins her work at the museum, Naima meets Damian (Pooch Hall.) The two begin to get close, bonding over their love for music and their desire to leave their respective marks on the world.

The movie stars Stan Shaw, Pooch Hall, Kevin Wayne, Andrea Lewis, Roz Ryan, and Ruben Studdard and is directed by Roger Bobb.

A Nashville Legacy will broadcast on Sunday, February 26 7/6c on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Channel.
