NERO was written, directed, edited, and Executive Produced by Kyoung H. Park.

Amidst writer and actor strikes in film and a revolution following the shutdown of theaters due to COVID, we are proud to have filmed NERO as a SAG-AFTRA approved new media production.

We stand with labor.

NERO’s development was launched in parallel with KPB’s Community Co-Lab programming in partnership with our local community partners, GAPIMNY-Empowering Q***r and Trans APIs, The Blasian March, Asians4Abolition, Asians Fighting Injustice, Caribbean Equality Project, PeoplesHub and The Exponential Festival.

Our joint programming included our “Whiteness on Fire” series, which provided political education sessions on abolitionist frameworks and Black and Asian solidarity work taking place in our community. In addition, our community-care strategies included local mutual aid work, through which KPB provided over 5,500 pre-packaged food, PPE, personal hygiene products and over 300 hot meals to our local community for free. Thanks to The Flatbush Junction and Downtown Brooklyn Partnership for hosting us and the NYC Office for the Prevention of Hate-Crimes, NYC Department of Youth and Community Development, and Councilmember Farah N. Louis for your financial support.
