About Finding Juliet

Heartbroken and struggling to forget the image of her girlfriend (Akeya Young) cheating on her with an ex, Meeko Brown (Angelica Brooks) attempts to put the past behind her by setting out to find her one true love, her “Juliet.” While at first it seems as if Meeko has found the perfect antidote to a broken heart her plan soon turns to smoke when a few run-ins with the ex and her new girlfriend prove to be too much.  Though seeing the ex won’t be easy, Meeko finds a companion in the cute, flirtatious bartender (Andrea McPherson) to help mend the sour wounds of a broken heart. Finding Juliet was written, directed and produced by Kanithea Powell. The cast includes Rhonda Cammon, Latashia Davis, Kenneth Ray, Kanithea Powell, Jade Green, and Jasmine Russell.
