Created by Devon Haughton and Gordon Greene, LUFALO RISING takes place in a world where climate change has buried low-lying coastal areas beneath ocean waves and made inhabitants of the Caribbean climate refugees. In the story, Lufalo Banza is wanted by authorities for a murder he did not commit, and by a brutal warlord who seeks to control the special power that Lufalo possesses. Banza escapes from the dystopian island of YABO (one of three islands remaining in the Caribbean region) and flees to Quake City, NEW LAND, where the past he thought he left behind tracks him down. LUFALO RISING celebrates the African Diaspora with rich storytelling informed by myth combined with the existential threat of climate change.

Meet the legendary Director/Actor/Producer Bill Duke, Gus Blackmon (50Year Exec Producer with Warner Bros), Kenneth Dixon (Exec Producer Warner Bros, Actor), Susan Ilot (Producer Afterwards and The Martini Shot), Film distributor, Barrett Dungy, Attorney, filmmaker, and Fulton County Commissioner, Marvin Arrington Jr.
