Brown Girl in the Ring Nalo Hopkinson Sharon Lewis


Created by filmmaker Sharon Lewis, Brown Girl in the Ring – The Prequel is inspired by Jamaican science fiction and fantasy writer Nalo Hopkinson’s novel Brown Girl in the Ring. The book and the upcoming film both draw their names from a classic West Indian kid’s game.

Lewis recently launched a crowdfunding campaign for the project. In order to receive additional grant money allocated for the project, she needs to prove that the film has some funding available. Check out more info about the project below and support Brown Girl in the Ring – The Prequel here.
