About the Movie
Dutty Sykes, a young urban male, whose childhood was spent in a neighborhood shadowed by Boston’s expanding skyline,understood the reality of business decisions from an early age. Raised by Ronesha Sykes, a single mother who indoctrinated him with the knowledge of supply and demand, Dutty’s business endeavors began initially as an observer of and later a participant in his mother’s home-based hustling venture.
A youthful Dutty became absorbed by the allure of business as he assisted his mother’s hustling enterprise that emanated from their apartment. As his mother’s assistant, Dutty frequently observed marginalized individuals, heard the lies they proffered as truths, and wondered why so many of them have had difficulty navigating success into their lives. It is this question that themed Dutty’s desire to elude the fate of his clients.
As an adolescent, Dutty attained celebrity status as being a merchant capable of attaining downtown’s desired items for uptown prices. However, this notoriety only increased his desire to attain greater heights, Boston’s corporate community. The realization of this goal occurs in Dutty’s early twenties. By utilizing street contacts, Dutty facilitates the acquisition and delivery of documents to one of his downtown clients with whom he’d engengered a friendship. The success of this endeavor translates into the realization of Dutty’s dream- entry into the arena of Boston’s corporate world.
