The picture contains archival records with all the characters, as well as an interview with modern artists, in which their work has had a direct impact, including Holly Berry.

The Oscar premium owner told that any appearance of dark-skinned actresses on the screen left the indelible imprint in the soul of Holly. "It has always been important for me to identify yourself with great actresses of modernity with the dark color of the skin. I have previously seen the game Lena Horney, Dorothy Daidridge and Dian Carrolol on the big screen, and then they fascinated me. I dreamed of becoming the same great actress as Dorothy in the movie "Julia", "Holly admitted.
"It is very, very important," Holly emphasized, making the emphasis on the fact that her mother became a white woman named Judith Ann Hawkins, who could not fully convey to her cultural codes and help identify himself in an adult world.
