Director Dee Rees's celebrated debut film Pariah (2011, 86 min) follows teenager Alike (Adepero Oduye) who lives in Brooklyn's Fort Greene neighborhood with her parents (Charles Parnell, Kim Wayans) and younger sister (Sahra Mellesse). A butch lesbian, Alike quietly embraces her identity, but she wonders how much she can truly confide in her family, especially with her parents' marriage already strained.
