Isha Blaaker as Allison Davis and Jasmine Cephas Jones as Elizabeth Davis in Ava DuVernay’s Origin (2023).
This dynamic couple laid the academic foundation for many of the ideas explored in the film around the notion of caste in America. Their journey took them from the segregated south of the United States to Berlin, Germany during the rise of Nazism.
Isha and Jasmine beautifully embody these trailblazers as they endeavor on a landmark - and often dangerous - journey.
