About the film 

In black enuf* a queer oddball seeking approval from Black peers despite a serious lack of hip-hop credentials. Carrie Hawks' quest for a Black Card (undeniable acceptance of my racial identity) takes them from Missouri to New York, and halfway around the world. " 

Carries examines the expanding Black identity through a personal journey into their great-grandmother’s autobiography, interviews with family & friends, and their hand-drawn memories. Tongue-in-cheek humor makes such a heavy topic digestable in a film that uses a variety of illustrative styles.”
