Ava DuVernay’s ARRAY Releasing Acquires Numa Perrier’s Film JEZEBEL Joining the Collective’s Recent Roster of Critically Acclaimed Films

ARRAY Releasing announces the acquisition of the award-winning coming-of-age drama JEZEBEL, directed, written, co-starring and produced by Numa Perrier. Winner of Best Director and Best Narrative Feature at American Black Film Festival, the film follows 19-year-old Tiffany (Tiffany Tenille) as she navigates her dying mother’s financial struggles. By working as an internet fetish cam girl in the 90s, the young woman uses her fantasy world as an escape from her real-life circumstances.

ARRAY Releasing will premiere JEZEBEL on Netflix on Thursday, January 16 as well as in select cities theatrically.

Based on Perrier’s true-life experiences JEZEBEL marks the writer/director’s feature directorial debut, which made its world premiere at SXSW 2019. Perrier also won The Craig Brewer Emerging Filmmaker Award at the 2019 Indie Memphis Film Festival.
