Nicole Franklin has spent a career in documentaries, shorts and theatre. Nicole is a filmmaker who explores African American subjects often not covered in cinema.

TITLE VII, is her first narrative feature as writer/director.

Nicole was sent the book Within The Walls by author Daisy M. Jenkins, and the story immediately brought flashbacks of my experience with same-race discrimination in the office. Although it is not quite taboo, there definitely may be some secrets exposed as co-screenwriter Craig T. Williams and Nicole present the story of a self-hating higher up who wreaks havoc when the mere presence of the new female hire commits the ultimate sin of reminding him of his color.
