Soleil Spotlight

Here's the first-ever behind-the-scenes look at the world's most trailblazing filmmakers & industry executives of color, their personal career journeys, and hilarious cultural moments. Immerse yourself into the world of film & entertainment while expanding your knowledge of different global cultures. The world is a giant marketplace and yet remains an extremely fractured place. We want to fill that in by speaking out loud on the lack of representative stories from people of color in western media. Soleil Spotlight amplifies these voices from the different diasporas of Asia, Africa Latin America, the Caribbean and the middle east. Follow us on IG - @soleil.space
