More On Kyla Pratt’s The Memo

“Women leaders are leaving their jobs at the most alarming rate in history. Entertainment pioneers in music, film, and television banded together to produce an explosive short film to address this widening gap with storytelling and music at its core,” the makers said in a statement. Directed by Vanna James and written/produced by Nakia Stephens, The Memo is presently in the post-production stage. Butterfield, Harts and Pratt, along with Modupé R. Congleton and Miatta Johnson, serve as executive producers.

Speaking about her experience, Kyla Pratt shared that she resonated deeply with the book and the script from the very start. “Coming from a lineage of resilient Black women and now raising daughters myself, the chance to portray the lead, Minda Harts, presented by Seed, was an unequivocal yes! As storytellers, it’s our responsibility to truthfully depict narratives and characters that empower others to feel acknowledged, understood, and liberated. I am honored to be the vessel that brings this amazing story to life,” she added.
