The Denied (2023)
DENIED is a film about EQUALITY. It's a story of two male police officers, who are also a loving couple. One is a Homicide Detective and the younger is a Patrolman. The Patrolman is killed in the line of duty, leaving Andrew (Homicide Detective) to deal with Alex's (Patrolman) hateful family, hospital rules and bigoted Brothers in Blue. It shows the uselessness of Hate.
Directors: Wil J. Jackson, Miguel Miller.
