Tyler and Zora are aspiring filmmakers, African American, and longtime friends. Recently, a disconnect has begun to bud between the two's working relationship, as well as their friendship. Tyler, an openly gay male believes his film ideas shed a light on the trans experience, while Zora, a woman of trans experience, feels exploited by Tyler's writing. When a hostile construction worker, enters the diner the two work at, Zora is given the opportunity to prove to Tyler, as well as herself, that she is much more than a tragic heroine. Black Coffee Politics is a dark comedy that explores the complex relationship between the black LGBTQ experience, normalized violence, and with whom belongs the authorship of a narrative.
