Starring Tessa Thompson (For Colored Girls) as its title character, Blue Belle is based on the true story of a woman living two lives – one as a high school teacher during the week in Santa Barbara, and the other working weekends in Las Vegas as a “lady of the night”.
Written and directed by Perry Lang, the series strives to convey “a woman’s struggle to bring two incomplete halves of a very complicated life together.” Another central part of its storyline centers on Marcus (played by Calvin Pijlman), an obsessive and wheelchair-bound student who follows Blue to Las Vegas to confront her about her choices.
Blue Belle can be seen in 21 3-minute episodes at 3 Minute Pictures.
