Four years ago, writer/director David Fortune made a short film called Us. Today, that spark -- and the feature film it became -- is streaming globally on Netflix. Color Book — Fortune's debut feature — follows a widowed father and his son with Down syndrome on a journey through Metro Atlanta to attend their first baseball game together. Through the Film Independent Amplifier Fellowship (which Netflix supports), Fortune developed the project, secured funding, and won Tribeca's AT&T Untold Stories competition — a $1M prize that brought the film to life. The result: 30+ festival honors and a global Netflix release. Some stories deserve to be told. We're proud this is one of them.
