Crazy Mama

By Sharon Scott Williams

Directed by Golden Globe Nominee Anson Williams

Sharon races home from school a couple days after her 8th birthday to beat her teenage brother Spikey to the last slice of birthday cake. When she enters the kitchen, she finds her mother wielding a knife. As the Sheriff escorts her mother away, the deputy tells Sharon that her mama is “not right in the head.”

One woman plays 16 characters in this tour-de-force about Sharon’s decades-long dream of saving her mother from the soul-crushing grip of mental illness. A testament to the steely resilience of the human heart and the enduring nature of hope, Crazy Mama will leave you breathless, moved, and profoundly inspired.
