THE HARDER HE LOOKS
THE DEEPER HE GETS Set in contemporary rural Louisiana, Strange Fruit explores the tribulations of William Boyals, a successful New York lawyer and gay African-American who comes home to the life from which he escaped to investigate the lynching of his also-gay childhood friend, Kelvin.
Amidst the sultry beauty of the bayou, William is forced to wade through a bog of conspiracy involving an insidious network of local law and a dangerously entrenched subculture. At the same time, he finds himself having to confront the reasons he left in the first place.
The harder he looks, the deeper he gets, until the veil is pulled back to reveal a quagmire of racism and homophobia that threatens his life.

Review by Bi Boy on 09/10/2006 - 
Brillient! A rare film that is saying something withot being preachy. Perhaps the first film that deals with the -ism within the -ism in African American culture. The acting is Oscar worthy. Jeck out Berlinda Tolbert (The Jeffersons, "Jenny") as the greiving mother.
