A solid Indie With a strong Message

No Shade is the story of A young lady Really Searching For Love In the city of London Dealing With colourism and the Prejudice that comes with being a black woman of any shade. The Treatment or mistreatment From outside and within the black community

it's pretty well done Mostly a Strong Message of equality and loving yourself and not being so concerned with shade .

you feel the characters pain because the women are all mistreated in different ways .Some of the scenes are heart breaking to see a person let outside forces get to her

Sometimes I felt like it was a bit harsh on how it portrayed Black men or even just men in general Maybe that's my personal bias .I know people like Danny do exist I just Feel if Jade was Really his best friend He wouldn't really make such Harsh and ignorant statements .

somethings were a bit to spelled out when it could have been left unsaid as subtext or revealed in a less direct way . Maybe Just a bit less preachy but I understand where it's coming from sometimes preachiness is the only way for a message to be heard . Maybe Could Have Shaved off twenty minutes or less in the edit .

But overall it was a decent solid movie if you know what your getting into a Black British Indie Film Romantic Drama as long as your prepared I think it's enjoyable can be a bit heavy at times but better to leave you with things to think bout than nothing at all
