For Derrick Peprah, this double premiere is more than a film release it’s a moment of celebration for Oakland’s independent film scene. “We’ve been building PepFilmStudios brick by brick,” he says. “Our cast went above and beyond to bring Broken Palms to life, and I couldn’t be prouder of how far we’ve come. This is only the beginning.”
With The Migos and Broken Palms Apartments, PepFilmStudios continues its mission to bring authentic, community-rooted stories to the big screen, while highlighting the creativity and resilience of independent filmmakers in the Bay Area.
