AT&T and Tribeca are thrilled to have selected Color Book as the 6th annual winner of the 2023 #ATTUntoldStories program! This mentorship program between AT&T and the Tribeca Festival seeks to connect rising filmmakers from underrepresented backgrounds with resources and to further their craft.

Color Book paints an inspiring portrait of Atlanta, and the concepts of disability and community in the city. The film follows a devoted father learning to raise his son who has Down Syndrome after the family’s matriarch es away. While adjusting to their new reality, the duo embarks on a journey through Metro Atlanta to attend their first baseball game.

Writer/director David Fortune and producer Kiah Clingman were selected from four other finalists to win $1 million and receive year-round mentorship for the feature film’s production. Much like Fortune’s prior films, Color Book normalizes themes of comion and intimacy in inner-city communities.

At this year’s live event, an expert jury of renowned industry talents including Derek Luke, Mo McRae, Michael Michelle, and Nardeep Khurmi presented the award alongside AT&T Chief Marketing and Growth Officer Kellyn Smith Kenny.

While David Fortune took home the top honor, the four finalists were also each awarded a $15,000 grant to develop their ideas. Watch the full pitch event below.
