DC Noir

DC Noir is a crime anthology series, currently consisting of four segments based on the short stories of novelist and screenwriter George Pelecanos. In the pilot, String Music (directed by Gbenga Akinnagbe), a young man navigates the rough world of the city with the help of a veteran patrol cop. Filmed entirely in the District of Columbia, with local crews and with the assistance of interns from Howard University, DC Noir is a true indy series and grassroots production.
