“Shared Soil Productions is on a mission to highlight stories told by and focused on the Queer-BIPOC community.”

At Shared Soil, we believe that representation leads to understanding which leads to connection. We bring our whole selves across all intersections to every one of our projects and encourage the same freedoms to any artists we collaborate with.

We’re ecstatic to announce that our first feature-length documentary, My Hair, My Rules received Audience Choice Award at the New York Lift-Off 2021’s virtual film festival! Find out more about the film and where you can watch it, below!

Our next project NATIVES is currently in development. NATIVES is an upcoming web series that follows a group of unapologetic, queer, native New Yorkers navigating adulting in the projects of NYC. We want to thank everyone who contributed to our recent crowdfunding campaign to help bring this project to life. Stay tuned and follow along on our journey on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

24-year old Ronald Hinton can be spotted in a crowd with his signature afro. It's taken him years to love and grow his big luscious curls, but underneath them, he's hiding a receding hairline. As Ronald unpacks his complicated relationship with hair, he prepares for the last attempt at saving this cultural blueprint, a hair transplant.

Intercut with stories from men of color, insightful conversations on race and identity, and raw medical footage, My Hair, My Rules encourages men of color to love their hair unapologetically.

My Hair, My Rules won the Audience Choice Award at the 2021 New York Lift-Off Film Festival!

Inspired by my New York experience, NATIVES explores what it's like to be a queer, early twenty-something, native New Yorker navigating adulthood in the projects of NYC.
