(Cannes, France) Film Producer Adetoro Makinde (“A Good Day To Be Black and Sexy“) dropped by the American Pavilion to host a SAG Indie roundtable discussion for students about producing independent film. Makinde has been fortunate to have her work screened at the Sundance Film Festival and various other festivals around the world.

She’s currently working on a film based on a family and their struggles during Hurricane Katrina. Her dedication to the world of film continues to prove successful as her Katrina script  has already been optioned to Will Smith’s production company Overbrook Entertainment.
