The beautiful thing about The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster is how much of a “first film” it is, in the best possible way. The directorial debut of Bomani J. Story, this is a film very much full of ideas, using genre to get at the heart of gnarly and thorny issues that rise above with some truly sublime moments, even as the overall narrative and directing get a little, well…messy at times. But it’s so easily forgiven because behind every odd edit, every cheap (though some are fantastic) visual effect you can see the beating heart of a storyteller, and his cast matches the pump and thrum of that heart in perfect time.
