“Ava has always been a supporter of me and my work,” Gerima said via press release. “I come from a generation of filmmakers — independent filmmakers in the late 60s, early 70s — where making films about marginalized communities and people of color was not always accepted by mainstream audiences. It was important to Ava and Array that this next generation of filmmakers get an opportunity to see my past work and to understand it.
Directed by Allan Ungar and written by Kraig Wenman, the film is based on Robert Knuckle’s best-selling novel “The Flying Bandit,” which follows the true story of Gilbert Galvan Jr. , who successfully got away with 63 bank and jewelry heists during his crime spree.
