Another Love Jones Film: Artist-Actor Shawn "ETCETERA" McClain Lands Lead Role In Indie Film "Black Heart"

Posted By: D Griffin on July 14, 2011


Artist-Actor Shawn "ETCETERA" McClain landed the lead role in the indie film “Black Heart.” The film recently won an award at the Philidelphia Film Festival for Best Film. Black Heart is scheduled to premiere at the Action On Film International Film Festival in Los Angeles this month.

Shawn “ETCETERA” McClain plays the title role of young musician, Shane “Preme” Davis who has Type-1 Diabetes. Preme, who has been seeing a sexy new girl Sasha (Anita Clay) who could easily be his soul-mate and right now he feels like a million dollars.



It’s his best friend Mike (James Lentini) that's holding the music together for him while he takes care of his health problems: what more could a man wish for...

Mike, an ambitious manager, and would-be rap artist, has love for Shane like a brother, and would give up everything for him, but later begins to see his ticket out of wannabe-ism put at risk with the poor health of his friend and fellow musician. He becomes obsessed with an upcoming trip to Hollywood to meet with a record exec and his heart is set on a record deal.

Mike's got a plan with dollar signs in his eyes, but he needs help. He turns to Sasha who is ambitious and hungry for success.
