'Hood Prophets’ is an intimate portrait of first generation, West African creatives Modibo ‘Minx$’ Sy and Mamadou ‘Dusse’ Doumbouya.
An excerpt that profiles their heritage, practice of their Islamic faith and the Harlem community that continues to serve as the backdrop of their pursuit to sow change, love and service to others.
Although presented conceptually, the film grounds itself in the truth, that love is a language spoken and harbored by many, peace as a virtue of intention and the concept of community, as a well for replenishment as well as reflection.
