KNIVES IN MY THROAT

The 54 minute documentary was released in 4 webisodes as a public service.  The film follows a year in the life of Taqiyya Haden, a talented, but suicidal NYC hip hop poet and her battle with manic depression. Her problems are compounded by her personal demons, namely her abusive Italian mother (with her own troubles) who raised the talented and intelligent biracial girl by often referring to her as “nigger,” and substance abuse.

Knives in My Throat was developed with the support of Film Video Arts' Thomas Allen Harris Mentor Project and  Hollywood Producer Steve Nicolaides. The film continues to be distributed with the support of AJ Muhammed. Thank you!
