 In
the forthcoming film, "Constellation" chronicles the

the deep South as they are forced to come to
terms with a tumultuous past marked by an
unrequited interacial affair.

Williams III, explores
the way in which the family patriarch must
confront his demons amidst the changing racial
fabric of society and his own family.
