Scent of the Delta is a gritty independent drama feature being made by those with the real lived experience [ myself and my team]. It’s about the working poor who are Vietnamese American and Black in New Orleans East, with me being a boat person refugee who was brought up in poverty in the American South in the 1980s. The lead characters and actors are Vietnamese American and Black women — as are the key creatives behind the scenes including award winning writer/director Nikki Taylor Roberts.
