I don't make films because I think I have all the answers. I make them because I have questions I can't shake. Because I've seen what silence can do. Because sometimes telling one person's story gives somebody else the courage to tell theirs. And because I believe a camera can be more than a way to document what is happening. It can be a way to say, I see you. You're not crazy. You're not alone. Let's talk about this.
Set Yourself On Fire is a documentary about sexual assault, survival, and what happens after the trauma. Through intimate conversations with survivors, the film moves beyond the violence itself to explore healing, resilience, justice, and the complicated ways people carry what has happened to them.
Outside the House is a documentary about Black mental health, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to tell the truth about what we’re carrying.
Seeking Asylum is Darnell Lamont Walker’s debut documentary, sparked by the murder of Freddie Gray. The film explores race, safety, policing, travel, and the search for a place where Black people can breathe a little easier.
