The Story

What would happen if someone from the 1800s woke up in modern day Atlanta?
And then we took it 1 step further. We wanted to explore what it would be like for a free black woman from 1863 (aka the middle of the Civil War) who worked as a nurse in New York City to suddenly wake up in 2018 Atlanta. Introducing Rose.
To complicate matters further, the first person she runs into is a self-entitled priviledged white woman named Alex.
An unliklely alliance forms as Rose, searches for a way back.
Meanwhile, Alex's motivations are unclear...

One of Nicole’s goals as a filmmaker is to create a strong team of women to
breathe life into meaningful stories that the audience can use as an escape
from their everyday life. She has begun that process with her previous 2
projects as she is one of two female creators of the show, Girls of Wisdom. A
pilot that led to the launching of #Besties, a 12 episode comedic web series
about two girls that epitomized the LA attitude and lifestyle. Along with co-
starring and co-writing, she also partnered in the production, marketing and
online distribution that gained thousands of subscribers and over 4 million

into the world of film and television. Her Psychology degree from Long Beach
State provided the perfect platform to land her roles in numerous award
winning short films, web series, music videos and commercials. In addition to
pursuing a career in front of the camera, Martha developed a talent for
producing and writing - "What Dreams Mae Come", her first short film focused
on shedding light on women in STEM fields, landed a finalist spot in the 2016
WIF Hall of Fame B-Stem competition. Martha splits her time between LA and
Atlanta, where she has focused her attention to creating and producing
