She is renowned for creating challenging, visionary stories and has been distinguished by her commitment to inclusivity and empowering diverse voices. Her contributions like this year’s Little Richard: I Am Everything about the life and career of Little Richard, the one-of-a-kind rock ‘n’ roll icon who shaped the world of music and Lisa’s ongoing dedication to her craft embodies the very essence of the word Pioneer.”

A.V. Rockwell, director of Sundance Film Festival 2023 Grand Jury Prize winning film A Thousand and One.
And Tia Nomore for feature film acting her debut in the film Earth Mama where she, to quote BFCC member Anthony Holden (Blak Cinephile) “delivers a terrific, soul-baring performance.”
Special Mention: Colman Domingo
Special Mention this year goes to Colman Domingo who, to quote BFCC member Harrison Martin (FLIXFROG) is “The embodiment of the word thespian. Domingo is a domineering versatile actor whether he’s on stage, television, or on the silver screen. Domingo pulled off two great performances this year as the openly gay civil rights activist Bayard Rustin in Rustin and the charismatic yet abusive Albert ‘Mister’ Johnson in The Color Purple (2023).”
