We’re big fans of director/ screenwriter David Kirkman here at BlackSci-Fi.com. As a creator, he’s delved into the world of black superhero epics (The Dakota City Chronicles), and socially conscious dramas (Gonzo).

So we’re excited to show you the trailer for his next film, the Afrofuturism-inspired Underneath. Check out the new trailer below. From the film’s summary: During the U.S Civil War, a slave from Little Dixie, MO is thrust into an intergalactic crisis after encountering an alien from a crashed spaceship.
