Four lifelong friends enter into a race against their biological clocks while working to find the perfect mates and start families. Victoria (Tamala Jones), Zenobia (Nicole Ari Parker), Clevon (Kevin Hart), and Phil (Keith Robinson) are on the cusp of middle age, yet somehow they've managed to reap the rewards of adulthood. Though Victoria has come down with a bad case of baby fever, her husband resists the idea of fatherhood. Meanwhile, Zenobia is on the hunt for a man who wants to settle down and have kids, and nerdy Clevon just wants to find a girl who will accept him at face value. The only one who has succeeded in starting a family is Phil. Unfortunately motherhood is the last thing on his wife's list of priorities. Perhaps by supporting each other, these four friends will finally find the companionship that will give their lives true meaning. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

From director Craig Ross Jr. comes this introspective comedy about a woman who wonders why all her relationships fail, and gets the rare opportunity to find out. Jazsmin Lewis stars in the title role, an advice columnist who decides to let her filmmaking pal interview all of her past boyfriends to learn what went wrong in each instance. She might not like a lot of the answers, but she ultimately discovers a lot about herself.

Winner of the Grand Jury Prize for Best Director at the 2001 Urbanworld Film Festival, Blue Hill Avenue focuses on the rise of the drug trade in Boston, as seen through the eyes of three childhood friends. The time is the late '70s, and Tristan (Allen Payne), Money (Aaron D. Spears), E-Bone (William Johnson), and Simon (Michael Taliferro) are all high-school pals and petty thieves on the mean streets of the city's South Side. Their antics bring them to the attention of Benny (Clarence Williams III), a charismatic drug dealer who takes the four friends under his wing. The most straight-and-narrow of the bunch, Tristan manages to keep his nefarious trade under the radar of his parents. As the years pass, however, the dealers introduce crack to their line of narcotics, and Tristan's sense of guilt over his neighborhood's demise leads to an inevitable betrayal of Benny, followed by a grisly showdown. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi
