Sinners: the film

 Filmmaker Shanella Bleeke also makes films about subjects that are discussed in Sinners. According to her, the film not only shows violence within systems, but also deeper themes such as cultural appropriation. Sammy is asked to share his talent with the vampires, but then he loses the music. And when the twin brothers are not fighting the vampires, they are fighting the racist Ku Klux Klan. Bleeke was very happy when she saw a full house with a diverse audience during her cinema visit to Sinners. According to her, the film is a break with a major stigma in Hollywood: that films by black makers would attract a smaller target group. "This is a film that everyone wants to see, but it serves the black community.
