FILLY BROWN is an extraordinary film, a momentous independent feature created by the writing/directing team of Youssef Delara and Michael D. Olmos.

Headlined by arresting newcomer Gina Rodriguez in her breakout role, Filly Brown aims to give voice to L.A. hip-hoppers spitting rhymes on Internet vodcasts and in underground clubs.

The movie, about a struggling Latina rapper played by Gina Rodriguez, features the Long Beach-born Rivera portraying the drug-addicted mother of the central character, a role that drew major attention at the Sundance Film Festival in 2012.
